Understanding Unhandled Services / Hosts

[Yueh-Hung Liu]

because the host is down, it assumes all its service are also unavailable.
therefore the first priority task is to "handle" the problem of the host.
so what i guess is just for simplifying display, only the host which
is down appears in Unhandled section.
