<p><strong>Service - </strong><strong>notification options</strong></p>
<p>This directive is used to determine when notifications for the service should be sent out. Valid options are a combination of one or more of the following:<br><strong><br>w</strong> = send notifications on a WARNING state, <br><strong>u</strong> = send notifications on an UNKNOWN state, <strong><br>c</strong> = send notifications on a CRITICAL state, <br><strong>r</strong> = send notifications on recoveries (OK state), <strong><br>f</strong> = send notifications when the service starts and stops flapping, and <br><strong>s</strong> = send notifications when scheduled downtime starts and ends.</p>
<p>If you do not specify any notification options, Nagios will assume that you want notifications to be sent out for all possible states.</p>
<p>Example: If you specify <strong>w,r</strong> in this field, notifications will only be sent out when the service goes into a WARNING state and when it recovers from a WARNING state.</p>
