Re: [Nagios-users] Same contact - two different notification methods

Use contact_groups cgroup -mail in your service definition.

Re: [Nagios-users] Same contact - two different notification methods
Yes, you create separate contacts. AFAIK there is no way to distinguish which alert method you want to use, so unless the user wants to be SMS'd about every notification you need to separate them out.

Thanks Steve. It would have been nice if I can define [host|service]_notification_commands in the service definition. This way one can create notify-by-pager command that will use the pager directive in the contact definition.
