problems with Distributed alerting

[Ron Wilson]

We have set up a distributed ngaios 3.02 system using Nagiosql with
several slaves and one master. The master is responsible for all
alerting. However when we disable a notification service on the master
ngaios and then do a reload of any of the slave servers it overwrites
the status of the disabled services. I am looking for some ideas how to
avoid this. Is it possible to say extract the status flags somehow
before we do a slave to master update so that we can then re-apply the
status flags immediately after update. Or is there an easier way to
handle this situation. I am aware of the caveat of not restarting ngaios
but just reloading but the disabled notifications seem to get replaced
regardless of restart or reload
