[Nagios-devel] notifications and acknowledges

Hi,

I want to use notifications from acknowledges as trigger for creating
trouble ticket. At this time, I put some logic into a script which is
called as notification command.

But why not treat acknowledges similar to flapping and downtime in the
notification_options?

notification_options d,r,x,s x = ack's

Currently I get the following behaviour:

1) host unreachable, notification_options = d,r
-> no notification
2) acknowledge this host
-> notification is sent!
3) host recovers
-> no notification due to no "UNREACHABLE" notification is sent.

I think this is a little bit asymmetric. It should be:

a) no acknowledge message would be send due to missing notification value u
or
b) send acknowledge and recovery
or much more better
c) make it customizable with an additional notification_option ;-)

Just my 2 Cents

Wolfgang
