Service thresholds

[Ben Whaley]

Greetings, 

I'm sure there is a way to do this with nagios but it isn't immediately
obvious to me. Here is my problem.

I'd like to suppress notifications about state changes for a certain
threshold. For example, say a server of my is hit with a spam message that
is delivered to all my users. The number of processes, number of sendmail
processes, and system load will all increase, all of which I am monitoring.
But if they just increase (over the critical states) and then return to
normal after delivering the spam, I don't want to be notified. I only want
to be notified if the host retains that critical state for, say, 2 or more
checks.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Ben Whaley
