Service alerts for a host that is down

[Justin Fitzhugh]

The reason this is needed is that I will have different contact groups
associated with a service on a host than the actual host itself.  For
example, if the application group is responsible for an app, but the UNIX
team is responsible for the machine - The app team wants to know their app
went down, but they want to know it went down because the server is down
(like dependencies) and of course the UNIX team wants to know the server is
down.  Without code modifications, I don't know if this is possible, but I
thought I would ask :)

	Do you really need this?  If you send out an alert for host isn't
that
enough?  Cause if the host is down all services on it are down as well.

	Of course you can always edit the source code and change it.
There's
no other way to do it, at least that I know of.  If I'm wrong, someone
please correct me.
