I'm facing the same issue on my side too.

I defined some hosts which I added to a hostgroup called "managed-services".

This same hostgroup has a "hostescalation" associated with it:

define hostescalation {
        hostgroup_name          managed-servers
        first_notification      2
        last_notification       0
        notification_interval   10
        contact_groups          +admin-cell
}

Unfortunately, "contact_groups +admin-cell" won't make this particular
"hostescalation" heritates from the original "contact_groups" property
I defined in all original "host". Example:

define host {
        [...cut...]
        contact_groups         host-contactgroup
        hostgroups             managed-servers
}

So basically, only "admin-cell" will receive the second notify,
not "host-contactgroup".

Any idea?
