<p><strong>Service - check interval<br> </strong></p>

"Regular" checks are those that occur when the service is in an OK state or when the service is in a non-OK state, but has already been rechecked <strong>max_check_attempts</strong> number of times.  Unless you've changed the interval_length directive from the default value of 60, this number will mean minutes.
