#2911 ntf: Alarm notifications queued for logging may not be logged

[elunlen]

The NTF service uses the OpenSAF log service for logging alarm notifications. When an alarm notification is created it is added to a buffer (queue) and logging this notification and eventual others in the queue is done.
A problem is that creating an alarm notification (any notification?) is the only trigger for logging. This means that notifications queued for logging may remain in the queue for a long time. It is also possible they will be lost.
Note: The queue is checkpointed to standby.
