[Nagios-users] Host dependencies on large deployment?

Using: Nagios 3.2.2. I have a number of hosts (actually hundreds), each running a few services as well as SSH. For Host A, I'd like for all other notifications on Host A to be disabled when SSH on Host A is critical. I would like to have the same behavior apply for Hosts B-Z, each dependent on th

Double-checking the docs I think I just realized this... If I understand this right, the "parents" option is used for Nagios itself (prehaps better re-worded as "internally") to define the network topology for the core host check. If the switch is down, it won't mark a host as Down, only as Un

Jim, I already have configured the parent relationship, and for visualization (status map), the network structure is exactly what it is. I do now that the host dependency works for notify exactly where the problem is, that's the reason, I send the last message to get some help on how to set it. I
