<div>hey guys</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I have nagios 2.4 on my linux</div>
<div> </div>
<div>i also have 54 host dependencies set up the follwing way </div>
<div> </div>
<div>define hostdependency{<br> host_name parent<br> dependent_host_name child1,child2,child3<br> notification_failure_criteria d,u ; These are the criteria for which notifications will be suppressed<br> }</div>
<div> </div>
<div>parent is my master hostname and child1 and child2 and child3 are are the dependents as you can see</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Now what I read from the manual if "parent" goes down then logically child1, child2 and child3 are also down thats what i see on my network</div>
<div> </div>
<div>But i keep getting 4 emails from parent, child1, child2 and child 3 </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I want only to get email from "parent" i thought the host dependency cfg file above does that for me ??</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Can you help out thanks </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I dont know if this command in the template is the answer but help would be appricated</div>
