When a downtime ends the CMC used to set the NOTIFICATION_TYPE to DOWNTIMESTOPPED, while Nagios uses DOWNTIMEEND. This leads to an invalid notification classification in the rule based notification, so that instead of the type Downtime Start or End a normal altert type was being assumed. That has been fixed now.
