When you do the action Reschedule active checks for more than one active checks then you now can enter a number of minutes. All checks will then be distributed evenly over that time.

This feature is interesting for checks with larger intervals. Most prominent example is the Check_MK Inventory check, which usually is done every 2, 4 or 24 hours. By spreading the executing of these checks you avoid large peaks in CPU load.
