service dependency

[Neil]

Ok. So, are you saying here that when apache-svc goes down too, you will not 
receive any notifications anymore related to apache-svc? 

I think this matrix will help me better: 

apache-svc=UP,   mysql-svc=DOWN - What notification should I get?
apache-svc=DOWN, mysql-svc=DOWN - What notification should I get?
apache-svc=DOWN, mysql-svc=UP -   What notification should I get? 

Please bear with me for now. :) 

Thanks again.
