AW: Cascading Services/Service hierarchy

[Mohr James]

I ran into another issue related to a service hierarchy. You said "So both service definitions are esential." So far, so good. What I am seeing is that there is always a "host" at the top level. That is, at the top of the hierarchy is a "host" even if it is not really a host, but a service.  If this is simply the way it is, I can deal with it. I am just curious if that is the way it is. 

Is there any way to create a multi-level heirarchy? Looking at the status maps on the Netway site, it does look like there are multiple levels. Is this just the representation of the dependencies or can you actually create multiple levels? 

By the way, what are people using for the 3d status map? I downloaded the Cortona player listed on the nagios.org site and the maps doesn't look very good. Any recommendations?

Regards,

Jim Mohr
