Notification Problems

[Bill Evans]

Steve, thank you for your reply.  My config is as follows:

*a. host template*
# critical host template
define host{
 name              crit-host
 use              base-host
 check_period       24x7
 check_interval       5
 retry_interval       1
 max_check_attempts      6
 check_command                check-host-alive
 notification_period      24x7
 notification_interval      240
 notification_options      d,r
 contact_groups       netadmins,ciptadmins
 register        0
 }

*b. host entry*
# 'backup1' host definition
define host{
 use    crit-host
 parents   bhs_mdf_msfc
 host_name   backup1
 alias    BACKUP1
 address   10.10.1.15
 notification_options d,r
 }

*c. contact template*
define contact{
        name                            standard-contact
        service_notification_period     24x7
        host_notification_period        24x7
        service_notification_options    w,u,c,r,f,s
        host_notification_options       d,u,r,f,s
        service_notification_commands   notify-service-by-email
        host_notification_commands      notify-host-by-email
        register                        0
        }

*d. contact info*
# 'bille' contact definition
define contact{
 contact_name   bille
 use     standard-contact
 alias     Bill E.
 email     bills_email at address.com
 }

That is pretty much it.  I basically took my config details from my
2.xinstall and mirrored them in my
3.x install.  I did recreate the files from scrach, but copied my logic
while factoring in the new version changes.

Any ideas based on this?  Thanks again.
