Notifications during network outage

[Menard, Chris]

Can you create a check on the 'link between the main site and remote site' and use that as a parent for all of the remote hosts?

Subject: [Nagios-users] Notifications during network outage

I have a couple of remote sites, and when the link between the main
site and remote site goes down a LOT of notifications are generated
for hosts in the remote site.  I have all the parents set correctly
and it is easy to decipher what is going on when you look at the
overview, but the mass of email generated is not useful.  What config
change should I make?  It doesn't seem like removing the notification
option for unreachable is the correct answer but I can't think of what
other things would possibly fix email spam if you will.
