Re: using contacts causing double email alert
Posted: Tue Sep 30, 2014 10:32 pm
milisa,
Adding contacts and contact_groups null to my top level generic-service-template do allow mix contacts/contact_groups in my services notification with only 1 single email alert.
Thanks for your help and I am appreciate all who help me get this far.
I might want to re-read the nagios-3.5.1 documentation about this issue...
