You mean like:


# All services that depend on NSClient++
define servicedependency{
        # Host the dependent service is running on
        dependent_host_name             HOSTNAME
        # Service that is dependent on the service_description below
        dependent_service_description   C:,CPU,Dell hardware,DHCP
scope,DHCP server,E:,F:,H:,I:,Shadow copies E:,Shadow copies
H:,Shadow copies I:,Memory usage,SMS Agent Host,Unplanned
restart,User-initiated restart
        # Host the master service is running on
        host_name                       HOSTNAME
        # Service that the others depend on
        service_description             NSClient++
        # Criteria to NOT notify for, if the above service is down
        notification_failure_criteria   w,u,c
        }


?  Because I have several hundred dependencies configured like this.
