Meta-notifications

Say I have two Nagios servers.  ServerA monitors all of my hosts and 
services, and ServerB monitors the Nagios processes on ServerA.  I'd 
like to add a check to ServerB to let me know when notifications have 
been globally disabled on ServerA (via Process Info -> Disable 
Notifications).

I'm wondering if there's a good way to do this.  The only thought I've 
had so far is to parse through status.dat and look for 
enable_notifications in the programstatus stanza.

My questions are:
- is there a better way to do this that anyone has thought of/implemented?
- if not, am I looking in the right place (under programstatus)?

Thanks,
Mike
