Can you look at one of these items in the CCM and see if they have something set (maybe a different timeperiod that is inactive)

The notification period can be changed with the Bulk Modification tool.

First go to the CCM -> Time Periods
find the ID in the far right column of the period you would like to set.

Go to CCM -> Tools -> Bulk Modification tool
Change a Single Config Option
select notification
enter the ID for your time period in the Value field
select hosts / services you want it applied to.
Save
