escalation/notification question

[Jeff Williams]

If I have a host called viper with the following definitions, I'm wondering
why the group admins gets warning notifications for the service "DISK /"
after the first notification. To me, these definitions say that admins
should get no more than 5 notifications and no warning notifications after
the first one. Am I wrong in thinking that? In testing this, the admins
group got at least 8 warning notifications.

host definition
---
define host{
        use                       generic-host
        host_name                 viper
        alias                     viper
        address                   127.0.0.1
        parents                   localhost
        check_command             check-host-alive
        notification_interval     0
        notification_options      d,r
        notification_period       never
        contact_groups            admins
}

service definition

define service{
        use                           generic-service
        host_name                     viper
        service_description           DISK /
        is_volatile                   0
        check_period                  24x7
        retry_check_interval          1
        contact_groups                admins
        notification_interval         5
        notification_period           24x7
        notification_options          w,u,c,r
        check_command                 check_nrpe!check_disk1
}

escalation definition

define serviceescalation{
        host_name                     viper
        service_description           DISK /
        first_notification            2
        last_notification             2
        notification_interval         5
        contact_groups                admins
        escalation_options            c,r
}
define serviceescalation{
        host_name                     viper
        service_description           DISK /
        first_notification            3
        last_notification             4
        notification_interval         5
        contact_groups                admins
        escalation_options            c,r
}
define serviceescalation{
        host_name                     viper
        service_description           DISK /
        first_notification            5
        last_notification             0
        notification_interval         0
        contact_groups                admins
        escalation_options            c,r
}

Please let me know if more info is needed. Thanks in advance.
