Hello Jonathan,
could you please give us a few more details so that we may better assist you:

1. Linux Distribution and version?
2. 32 or 64bit?
3. VMware Image or Manual Install of XI?
4. Are there specials configurations on your system, ie; is Gnome installed? Are you using a proxy? Are you using SSL?
5. Is this Nagios Core or Nagios XI?

Thank you.

Hello,

the linux distribution is a RHEL 5 64bit with Nagios Core manualy installed, there are not special configurations.

my problem is that I have the escalation but I want that also the normal notification (every 30min if is a problem) go.

Thanks

Jonathan

Take a look at this doc from Nagios Core, this might have what you need:
