How can I peruse a history of past check results?  Not past state changes, but 
the actual check values, even if they did not result in a state change.
For example, if the past 20 service checks for some object resulted in "OK" 
status, I still want to see the checker output for those past 20 checks, even 
if there was no state change.

I see that there is a table in my SQL (Postgres) database called 
icinga_servicechecks, and it seems to have the columns that I am interested in, 
but the table is always empty.

I realize that these check values can't be kept indefinitely, as they would 
take up a tremendous amount of space.  But the existence of this table seems to 
imply that they are kept for at least some time.

>From the documentation:

Servicechecks Table

Description: This table is used to store a historical record of service checks 
that have been performed. NOTE: This table is usually trimmed periodically by 
the IDO2DB daemon, as it would otherwise grow to an enormous size.
This was from the Icinga 1 documentation, but I see that this table is present 
in my Icinga2 instance.  But it is empty.  Is there something I need to 
configure to get this to record the check results?

Thank you,
