Notifications on passive service checks

[Assaf Flatto]

  Actually , the fact that the check is passive or active is some what 
irrelevant in this context.

The place that will determine the notification policy is you "central" 
nagios , and what you defined in your service/host notifications directive .
if you also define an escalation for that service - that will kick off 
the notifications .
