Enable mass notifications

I autoconfigured a number of devices and initially turned off notifications so that I could get them configured correctly. Now I would like to turn on notifications for all of these devices, specifically for a network switch which has 100+ status and bandwidth checks. Is there a way to easily do this in the Nagios XI interface?
We are running Nagios XI 2012R1.3 on CentOS 6.3.

You can change a limited number of config options in bulk through the bulk modifications tool in the CCM --> Tools --> Bulk Modifications.
Did you just disable notifications, or not set any up at all?

Bulk modifications has an option labeled "notifications_enabled" and can be applied to multiple hosts at once.

You can mass enable or disable notifications as Abrist said, to access the Bulk Mods tool, enter the CCM > Tools > Bulk Modifications > Single Config Option > Notifications Enabled, then select the hosts or services from the buttons below.
