I see hundreds of entries like this in /var/log/icinga2/icinga2.log:

[2014-11-18 16:03:53 -0800] information/NotificationComponent: Sending reminder notification for object 'TARDISXXXCORE05!Mongo Replication Lag'

All entries are for the same object - same host, same service.

I'm attaching my configuration.

OK, I think I know what's going on.

I have a notification filter state set to [OK, Critical]. The replication lag is a warning, so a notification is never sent and SetLastProblemNotification() is never called.

The condition:

if (notification~~GetInterval() <= 0 && notification~~>GetLastProblemNotification() > checkable->GetLastHardStateChange())

in NotificationComponent::NotificationTimerHandler(void) is always false and the "Sending reminder notification" message keeps getting logged every time the timer fires - i.e., every 5 seconds - even though no notification is actually sent.

The problem is that this log entry is added before the notification filters are checked. Which could prevent sending a notification.

We should move that entry into 'notice', and rename it a bit. Notification being sent successfully is still logged with 'information' level.
