When notifying or subscribing actions within a resource the action should always be a symbol. In Chef Infra Client releases before 14.0, this may result in double notification.

Examples

execute 'some command' do
  notifies 'restart', 'service[httpd]', 'delayed'

execute 'some command' do
  subscribes 'restart', 'service[httpd]', 'delayed'
end
