service state for host unreachable

I'm not sure I understand, do you mean that you wish to suppress the
notifications (both host and service) if the _host_ becomes unreachable?  If
this is the case, then just removing the "u" from the hostgroup definition
will do.  

If a host becomes unreachable, Nagios will suppress all service
notifications and will send a host "UNREACHABLE" notification (unless you
have removed the "u" from the hostgroup definition).  If you remove the "u"
from the hostgroup definition then you would not get a notification about
this host or any of its services at all; but then you would be able to
deduce this from the host down notification you receive from the upstream
host right?

Hope this helps,
dean

Subject: [Nagios-users] service state for host unreachable

I'm trying to suppress notification for services on host when they 
become unreachable.
So, I put only d,r on notification host in notification_options field.
But what about services on these hosts? Are notification suppressed or 
are they in unknown state, so I have to delete the u flag on 
notification_options in servie definition, too?

Thanks in advance
