Problem with service dependency

Hello,

	I am trying to configure service dependencies in my nagios system. But
I have a problem with notifications. This is my test configuration:

define service {
    name                    DISK_/
    host_name               galemys
    use                     servicio-generico2
    service_description     DISK_/
    check_command           snmp_disk!public!1!80!95
}


define service {
    name                    snmp
    host_name               galemys
    use                     servicio-generico2
    service_description     snmp
    check_command           check_snmp_status!public!2!5!10
}

	Because DISK_/ is monitored via SNMP, I want nagios to not check and
not notificate for DISK_/ service if snmp service is down. So I define
the next dependency:

define servicedependency {
    host_name               galemys
    service_description     snmp
    dependent_host_name     galemys
    dependent_service_description   DISK_/
    execution_failure_criteria      c,u
    notification_failure_criteria   w,u,c
}

	I don't want to check for DISK_/ service if snmp one is in critical or
unknown state. And I don't want to be notificated for DISK_/ service if
snmp one is in warning, unknown or critical state.

	The problem I have is that when snmp is down in the server, I am first
notified about DISK_/ being in unknown state. After a while, I am
notified about snmp being in critical state and I don't receive
notifications for DISK_/ anymore, but before this I have been notified
several times about DISK_/ begin in a unknown state.

	Ah.... I am using nagios 1.3

	Is this right? Or I have something missconfigured?

	Thank you in advance.
