I would like to know if it is possible configure Nagios 3.4.3 in this way: when a node is DOWN, its associated services will answer with not available (of course). However, in nagios web, selecting "Host Groups", I can see nodes with DOWN status but their services in CRITITAL status... It seems services have not been checked (of course because that systems are DOWN) but visually it seems services are in a problem because theey are CRITICAL.
This configuration, is a problem in my configuration or is it normal in Nagios?
Would it be possible to change status name (not CRITICAL) when node is DOWN?
thanks.
