Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Notification Recovery Issue


As I've said, I notice in the logs that there is a recovery notification
going to my none contact group, then before that I see the notification
sent to the none contact group, and then 2 hours before that I see the
notification going to everyone that it is supposed to.  This has been
happening for awhile now.

Also, I don't believe your suggestion would do anything as the
documentations say:  "Note: Notifications about host or service
recoveries are only sent out if a notification was sent out for the
original problem. It doesn't make sense to get a recovery notification
for something you never knew was a problem."  Therefore why would a
contact only get recovery notifications.

        Here's a thought: could it be that your original contact list
don't get
        notified because you are in an escalation period? Thus the
original list
        is out of reach.
        
        One thing you could try is creating a new list (lfisher_ooh) and
then
        set this group to get the alerts during escalation periods but
only
        'recovery' alerts (ie. notification_options r)

        have you checked the log to see what happens when it detects a
recovery
        ?
        could it be that you have tow instances running and thus the
nagios
        isn't running with the corrent config ?
