If you mean WARNING and CRITICAL, just notify once, you can set the "Notification interval" to 0

If you want CRITICAL's to renotify but not warnings, you would need to setup escalation

This setting can be changed by adjusting the "notification_interval" for the host or hosttemplate. Access the Core Config Manager->Host->Modify(icon)->Alert Settings (tab). If you set the notification interval to 0, it will only notify once upon a state change.
