Hello,

PRTG isn't storing whether a notification has been sent for any particular sensor already and therefore will sent the notification again after rebooting the PRTG server to ensure you will get notified for every alarm. This is by design, as the sensor state or sensors message could have changed during the reboot.

In order to stop notifications, you can either pause your notification templates or acknowledge the alarms.

Kind Regards,
