ENABLE_HOSTGROUP_SVC_NOTIFICATIONS

Command Format:
ENABLE_HOSTGROUP_SVC_NOTIFICATIONS;<hostgroup_name>
Description:

Enables notifications for all services that are associated with hosts in a particular hostgroup. This does not enable notifications for the hosts in the hostgroup - see the ENABLE_HOSTGROUP_HOST_NOTIFICATIONS command for that. In order for notifications to be sent out for these services, notifications must be enabled on a program-wide basis as well.

Shell Script Usage Example:
#!/bin/sh
# This is a sample shell script showing how you can submit the ENABLE_HOSTGROUP_SVC_NOTIFICATIONS command
# to Nagios. Adjust variables to fit your environment as necessary.
