Host and Service Dependencies

[Hopkins, Brian]

We are currently running into the issue with Nagios that when a host
goes down we are getting alerted about all the services on that same
host being down as well.  Is there a easy way to fix this so that if the
host is down we don't get the notifications about all the services on
that host?  The only thing I know to do is setup all the services on
each host to be dependent on the host itself so that if it goes down we
won't get alerted, this will just be a lot of work as I will have to
update each cfg file for each of our hosts and there are about 200 of
them.
 
Any help is appreciated.
 
Thanks
