Hi Steve,

IMHO this could not be correct.

In my case I also monitor Systems with more IP addresses.
One is assigned to the "host check".

I already got the case that.

1. I received HOST down alert, but one Service was still up.

2. Service Down alert Host still up

(And of course the really host down alert - all down)
I think that's what I expected.
