notification_interval seems to be ignored

[Zembower, Kevin]

Still trying to investigate why the notification_interval seems to be
ignored on my alert based on the ambient temperature in my server room.

One thought that I had was that the temperature was changing between
alerts, even though it was still in the critical or warning state. Would
this cause repeated notifications to be sent out? I've pasted in the
last notification I received at the end of this message. Note that the
duration is just 6 seconds, even though it arrived 10 minutes after the
first notification.

I also just received a third alert, 40 minutes after the first one. On
this one, the temperature was also different from the second one. The
duration was again 6 seconds. So, it does seem as if if the service
message changes (the temperature value changes), the alert is sent
again. Anyway to stop this feature, and only send alerts when the state
changes?

Thanks for your continued advice and suggestions.
