I haven't seen any response to the below question so am wondering if I've 
missed something in the docs? If so if someone could point it out for me I 
would appreciate it.

Thanks.

Karl.

(Original question below)
----------------------------------------------


My understanding of service checks is that if a service check fails then
a host check will be performed. If the host check fails I will receive a
host notification.

If I have service AND host dependencies in place, in what order are they
processed?

IE. if a service check fails and doesn't meet any of the service or
notification check dependencies for check or notification suppression
does a standard host check take place, or does Nagios then check the
host dependencies to see if the failure may be related to another host?

I can't find any documentation that explains the relationship between
service and host dependencies - just their individual operation
(http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/dependencies.html)
