It's the machine which runs the check command to see whether the host is up.

You don't want a machine to check itself to see whether it's up (!), so the
standard arrangement is that the parent machine performs the check.

And what do you have host.command_endpoint defined as?
It doesn't look good to me - it means either that:
- you're performing service checks on the parent of the machine you're
checking
or
- you're telling endpoint machines to check themselves to see whether they're
up or not.
