service notification_interval attribute does not seem to be used ...

[mohierf]

Hi,
I have a strange behaviour with notification interval. One of my passively checked service is in WARNING state and I receive mail notifications every 5 minutes whereas I should receive every 2 hours (notification_interval = 240).

When I look at the service notification_interval in Shinken WebUI (I made a patch to view ...), I get 240. But when I look at service configuration in Thruk, I get 0 ...

I do not understand two things :
- why do Shinken and Thruk not "see" the same value ?
- why do I get mail every 5 minutes whereas I configured 240 minutes. I tried to change from 240 to any other value but it does not change anything ...


Edit :
Perharps is_volatile=1 is not innocent because everything seems ok with notifications when is_volatile=0


BR, Fred.


I copy my Thruk service configuration view below :

Thruk is LiveStatus based, WebUI is not. So the problem of the parameter can be in not being implemented into Livestatus.

For the behavior, yes, the volative is done for this behavior (alert=notification). Just remove it
