nagios 3.5.1 to 4.1.1 : "notification_options" variable

[nagmoto]

In Nagios core 3.5.1 "notification_options" with empty options of "w,u,c,r" will not send any alerts.
But in Nagios 4.1.1, this approach will be rejected by syntax checker.

Is there an option in 4.1.1 to disable all level of alerts notification ?

in template.cfg

Code: Select all

notification_options                             ; Send notifications about warning, unknown, critical, and recovery events

nagios -v /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg

Code: Select all

   Read main 
config file okay...
Error: Invalid notification option 'options' in service definition.
Error: Could not add object property in file '/etc/nagios/objects/templates.cfg' on line 760.
   Error processing object config files!
