notification_interval = 0 and retained state but still get notifications on restart

[Colm Ennis]

i use nagios 1.2. 

i have set:
	notification_interval = 0 
for all hosts and services as we only want to be alerted once when a host/service goes down.

i have many devices/services and so autoprovision nagios config updates nightly. 

in order to load these config changes i restart nagios. to reduce the impact of this we retain state across restarts using:
	retain_state_information=1
	use_retained_program_state=1

however when nagios restarts it alerts for all hosts/services which are down despite haveing notification_interval = 0.

is there a way to do either of the following:
a) load new config without restarting nagios
b) stop nagios alerting a host/service on restart if it has already done so and notification_interval = 0?

does this happen in 2.0? should i upgrade?

thanks for your help,

colm
