Delay before pageing/e-mailing

[Greg Redder]

I'm trying to figure out how to get Nagios to pause for a while before it
pages/emails us about a problem.  We monitor pings to some devices which
aren't that critical, but that we still care about. We're not too worried
about them unless they are down (unpingable) for more than 15 minutes.

I'm preparing to write a plug-in that waits a specified amount of time
before pageing/emailing us when it detects a problem.  However, before I
get too carried away, has anyone else already dealt with this problem?

Thank you
