Hey,

is there a other way to get notifications, then just adding it to the eventhandler command with && ?
it looks like the event-handler resolves the problem before the notifications triggers, but i would like to get this information's sended. preferd without adding the sendmail to every event-handler.

Cheers,
Peter

You could alter the script or create a new script that executes the event handler and then sends a notification, or vise versa. It really depends how you would like to do it. However if your handler is resolving the issue prior the service or host state going critical, this would explain why your notification is not being sent.
