NAGIOS_LASTHOSTSTATE andNAGIOS_LASTSERVICESTATE - Variable

[Christian Mies]

I know that the Down on the last retry notfications is set. But I don't
get the Informations about the last host state if the status is
switching from down to up. or the service changed the state from
CRITICAL to OK.
If the Service or Host switch from OK to CRITICAL/WARNING or UP to DOWN
everything is working as designed.

Regards
Christian
