Nagios notification bug?

[Gerald]

Ethan & Developers,

I have a machine running netsaint and nagios in parallel.

Nagios sends out warning pages on hosts that are configured not to send
"Warning" pages. The netsaint process running on the same machine checking
the same servers/services does not do this.

Here is my concern based on the nagios documentation:

When Do Notifications Occur? A: Hard state changes.
https://netsaint.inch.com/nagios/docs/notifications.html

(The documentation defines Hard state changes as...)
https://netsaint.inch.com/nagios/docs/statetypes.html

If I stop here then nagios paged me for the service going from OK ->
Warning (...which is a hard state change)


Here is my log of this event happening once. (It has happened more than
once.)
Recovery:
Service Ok[03-26-2003 13:49:28] SERVICE ALERT:
ServerName;PING;OK;HARD;3;PING OK - Packet loss= 0%, RTA = 99.77 ms

3.
Service Warning[03-26-2003 13:44:29] SERVICE ALERT:
ServerName;PING;WARNING;HARD;3;PING WARNING - Packet loss = 0%, RTA =
313.78 ms

2.
Service Warning[03-26-2003 13:43:29] SERVICE ALERT:
ServerName;PING;WARNING;SOFT;2;PING
WARNING - Packet loss = 20%, RTA = 458.14 ms

1.
Service Warning[03-26-2003 13:42:38] SERVICE ALERT:
ServerName;PING;WARNING;SOFT;1;PING
WARNING - Packet loss = 20%, RTA = 190.77 ms


Here is the part of the config file that should have told nagios
not to page me for this service:

notification_options            c,r

http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/xodtemplate.html#service

Is the notification_options directive ignored in nagios now?

The rest is just my configs for this service in case someone wants to look
at them and point out what I'm missing.
