Notification on Stalk

[Aaron Devey]

The event handler might work but doesn't it stop executing after the
service enters a hard state? 0 (At least, that's how I understood nagios
2.x to work, perhaps nagios 3.x differs in this regard.)

A clever workaround to this might be to use the performance processing
options built into nagios. Perhaps by using the
'service_perfdata_command' and 'process_performance_data' nagios
options, and the 'process_perf_data' service directive, you could call a
script to process the data, log to a database, send emails, etc.  This
is not 100% ideal, since nagios should be handling the notifications/emails.

Instead of sending the emails, the above said script could also submit a
'critical' passive check to a single volatile service if the status is
critical AND has changed... but at this point I think I'm making this
more complicated than it needs to be.
