Nagios monitoring bacula - service dependencies

Hi, all.

    I have problem using service dependencies. I have a backup server 
(bacula), and I check status of backup through a mysql query ( 
http://darcs.complete.org/debian/bacula.upstream/examples/nagios.txt ) 
on server bacula using nrpe in server bacula.

    I have many others servers with I do backups in bacula (like server1 
below), then I check status of backup of this server, with this definition:

define service{
        use                             generic-service         ; Name 
of service template to use
        name                            TEMPLATE-REMOTE-BACULA-BACKUP
        service_description             Backup
        is_volatile                     0
        check_period                    24x7
        max_check_attempts              4
        normal_check_interval           5
        retry_check_interval            1
        notification_options            w,u,c,r
        notification_interval           0
        notification_period             24x7
        register                        0
        }

define service{
        use                             TEMPLATE-REMOTE-BACULA-BACKUP
        host_name            server1
        contact_groups    admins
        register                        1
        check_command                   check_remote_bacula_server1Job
        }

define servicedependency{
        host_name                       server1
        service_description             Backup
        dependent_host_name             bacula
        dependent_service_description   PING
        execution_failure_criteria      u,c
        notification_failure_criteria   w,u,c
        }

    I configure service dependency because when I shutdown bacula/mysql 
server, I got many notifications about backups. What is wrong in my 
definition of service dependency ? I want no notifications when bacula 
server is down.

Thank you.
