Greetings,

it seems I triggered a bug with our new nagios instance, as it shows quite=
=20
a strange behaviour.
Quoting from the nagios 3.x documentation:=20
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/ ... tions.html
Service and Host Filters:

"Note: Notifications about host or service recoveries are only sent out if=
=20
a notification was sent out
for the original problem. It doesn't make sense to get a recovery=20
notification for something you never
knew was a problem... "

This is what happened:

1. Service went CRITICAL -> Notifications to the contacts user1-mail,=20
user2-mail
2. Service went WARNING -> Notifications to the contacts user1-mail,=20
user2-mail
3. Service went OK -> Notifications to the contacts=20
user1-mail,user2-mail,user1-sms,user2-sms

vmctx02 CPU CRITICAL 18-08-2008 16:24:50 user1-mail=20
mail-notification CRITICAL: 15m: average load 100% critical
vmctx02 CPU CRITICAL 18-08-2008 16:24:50 user2-mail=20

vmctx02 CPU OK 18-08-2008 16:32:50 user1-mail=20
mail-notification OK: 15m: average load 92%
vmctx02 CPU OK 18-08-2008 16:32:50 user2-mail=20
mail-notification OK: 15m: average load 92%

I do not understand why the 2 sms contacts were notified, they never=20
received a
problem notification in first place. It was an escalation which triggered=20
those sms -
but it shouldn't have in my opinion. It seems it only happens in our=20
environment, if
exactly 2 notifications were sent before a recovery.

These are the relevant configs:


Contacts and Templates (user1 and user2 are identical):


define contact {
name generic-contact-mail

service_notification_period 24x7

define contact {
