 From what you say the changes should be in the escalation notification 
, with the type of alert defined for each interval

*escalation_options*: This directive is used to define the criteria that 
determine when this service escalation is used. The escalation is used 
only if the service is in one of the states specified in this directive. 
If this directive is not specified in a service escalation, the 
escalation is considered to be valid during all service states. Valid 
options are a combination of one or more of the following: *r* = 
escalate on an OK (recovery) state, *w* = escalate on a WARNING state, 
*u* = escalate on an UNKNOWN state, and *c* = escalate on a CRITICAL 
state. Example: If you specify *w* in this field, the escalation will 
only be used if the service is in a WARNING state.
