Just thinking about something here and didn't make sense.  Wanted to make sure 
I was not missing something... 

 

I define a contact like in the documentation... 

 

define contact{
 contact_name                    jdoe
 alias                           John Doe
 host_notifications_enabled      1
 service_notifications_enabled   1
 service_notification_period     24x7
 host_notification_period        24x7
 service_notification_options    w,u,c,r
 host_notification_options       d,u,r
 service_notification_commands   notify-by-email
 host_notification_commands      host-notify-by-email
 email                           [email protected]
 pager                           [email protected]
 address1                        [email protected]
 address2                        555-555-5555
 can_submit_commands             1
 }


Sure he gets email alerts just fine, but what if I wanted to make sure the 
contacts got emails to his default email as well as ADDRESS1 or PAGER for a 
particular service?   I create a "service_notification_command" called 
"notify-by-address1" which would work, but I can only seem to specify this on 
the contact level so he would get alerts to both addresses for every service 
he's a contact for.  

 

I know I could alternatively create a 2nd contact and add that 2nd contact to 
the particular service, I just didn't know if I'm missing some other way to 
configure a contact 'method' for a given contact at a service/host level.

 

Also I'm assuming I can modify this line...  

service_notification_commands   notify-by-email,notify-by-address1

For a given service so they get alerts to both locations for all alerts.

 

If not... perhaps be able to add something like this at the individual 
service/host level... 

 

contact            jdoe:notify-by-email,jdoe:notify-by-pager

 

defaulting to email if no method is defined...
