Service Dependencies - how to make a new one

[Merrett, Mike]

Hi:
    Does anyone know how to make a service dependency work globally?
For example I want to do this but it doesn't seem to work (at least in
3.0a3)
 
define servicedependency {
  hostgroups       2003-servers, 200-servers, XP-servers
  service_description    NT_Stats_Port
  dependent_service_description UPTIME
  notification_failure_criteria w,c,u,p
}

WITH
 
define service{
   hostgroup_name                2003-servers, 2000-servers, XP-servers
   service_description           UPTIME
   check_command                 check_nt_uptime
   use          generic-service
}
 
AND
define service{
   hostgroup_name                2003-servers, 2000-servers, XP-servers
   service_description           NT_Stats_Port
   check_command                 check_tcp!1248
   use          generic-service
}
 
I get 2 errors:
Error: A circular notification dependency (which could result in a
deadlock) exists for service 'NT_Stats_Port' on host 'hosta'!
Error: A circular notification dependency (which could result in a
deadlock) exists for service 'UPTIME' on host 'hosta'!

 
 
Thanks in advance
