Re-notification of OK does not work about icinga2

[julianbrost]

The purpose of the interval attribute is to repeat problem notifications. It also doesn't repeat notifications for the other types given in your config snippet (Custom, FlappingStart, FlappingEnd) either.

I need to re-send OK states.

I really wonder what the use case for this would be. Wouldn't that just indefinitely send notifications if everything is fine?

Exactly. My use case is to send a fequent 'heartbeat' to an external system every n minutes, reasonable set by 'interval'.

Quick and ugly hack would be to clone the existing check and invert the result with https://icinga.com/docs/icinga-2/latest/doc/10-icinga-template-library/#negate together with a notification that again negates the message back to OK.
