Event handlers don't fire on Acknowledgement. His workflow requires =20
that the action be performed then, not when the hard state is =20
initially reached.

It could be done as part of the notification command, checking for =20
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT for this particular service. It's not as clean but =20
