help explanation.

Hi All,

I was trying to understand from this example below. Can someone please explain me(considering newbie) this simple example on it's flow, the stages and the actions/events etc...
Why the rows form 2-5 says State change = Yes consecutively ?

This is from the bottommost example in this link (in case the below pasted one is unclear)-

http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/statetypes.html

Example

Here's an example of how state types are determined, when state changes occur, and when event handlers and notifications are sent out. The table below shows consecutive checks of a service over time. The service has a max_check_attempts value of 3.
Time	Check #	State	State Type	State Change	Notes
0	1	OK	HARD	No	Initial state of the service
1	1	CRITICAL	SOFT	Yes	First detection of a non-OK state. Event handlers execute.
2	2	WARNING	SOFT	Yes	Service continues to be in a non-OK state. Event handlers execute.
3	3	CRITICAL	HARD	Yes	Max check attempts has been reached, so service goes into a HARD state. Event handlers execute and a problem notification is sent out. Check # is reset to 1 immediately after this happens.
4	1	WARNING	HARD	Yes	Service changes to a HARD WARNING state. Event handlers execute and a problem notification is sent out.
5	1	WARNING	HARD	No	Service stabilizes in a HARD problem state. Depending on what the notification interval for the service is, another notification might be sent out.
6	1	OK	HARD	Yes	Service experiences a HARD recovery. Event handlers execute and a recovery notification is sent out.
7	1	OK	HARD	No	Service is still OK.
8	1	UNKNOWN	SOFT	Yes	Service is detected as changing to a SOFT non-OK state. Event handlers execute.
9	2	OK	SOFT	Yes	Service experiences a SOFT recovery. Event handlers execute, but notification are not sent, as this wasn't a "real" problem. State type is set HARD and check # is reset to 1 immediately after this happens.
10	1	OK	HARD	No	Service stabilizes in an OK state.


Thanks in advance,
sena
