extra recovery notifications

[Byrne, Tim]

I tried to add the "r" as you suggested, but then Nagios fails it's
pre-flight check with "Could not add object property".  The documentation
seems to suggest that the only valid notification_failure_criteria are "o",
"d", "u", and "n".  Interestingly using "n" also makes Nagios fail it's
pre-flight.

http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/xodtemplate.html#hostdependency

Any other ideas?

You have to specify d,u,r for your notifcation_failure_criteria then
recovery 
notification will be supressed so you will not get notification for both. 
Nagios will still send a notification recovery for both if you did not 
specify (r) because host A depends on host B, if host B recovers, host A 
recovers as well.
