Thanks, Nils. This worked great. An added bonus is that I can now delay the actual closing of a ticket. This will be helpful for those "flapping" problems that might come and go a few times over the course of an hour. I haven't tested it, but I'm assuming it will reopen the old ticket as opposed to creating a new ticket as we have experienced in the past.
Dear Fevin,You might need to configure the SystemMonitoring module to NOT close the ticket on OK messages.Instead you could use a pending auto status so the ticket is closed automatically in x seconds after receiving the OK messages.This way you should receive a normal follow up notification.Cheers, Nils—

I supposed I can make it work. It just seems like it worked so well before and I figured I must be missing something obvious.
Thanks again for the help.On Wed, Jan 12, 2011 at 2:49 PM, Michiel Beijen <michiel.beijen@gmail.com> wrote:
What was the version you upgraded from?
What's the big drawback of using an event-based notification?
