Nagios doesn't implement that type of logic. Some options that come to mind -- 1) Create a contact per status. contact1 that sends e-mails only does so for critical services; contact2 that sends pages only does so for warning services. 2) Have one contact but multiple notification commands (service_notification_commands service-notify-by-email,service-notify- by-pager). -by-email and -by-pager contain simple logic to only work for critical or warning respectively. 3) Create one contact with one notification command. That notification command contains the simple logic to send an e-mail or send a page depending on the notification type. 4) ... 5) Profit! This kind of configuration is discussed somewhat frequently on the list.
