Hi,

i am trying to build some dependencies. What i alread do is host parent
dependency which is simple, and service dependency for stuff like link
bundles and vlan subinterfaces etc.

Now given i have some hosts connected to a switch in VLAN A
and some connected to VLAN B. VLAN A gets its upstream via
Firewall A and VLAN B via Firewall B. The switch management
is a third path completely seperate.

To suppress alarms on the Hosts i would need to model their
dependencys on the switch and the Firewalls. But even the
Switch host dependency is broken as the switch might
be alive from the management perspective but dead vlan wise.

So my thought was a virtual service "VLAN A" on the Switch
on which the hosts depend e.g. Hosts in VLAN A depend on
a Service on the Switch called "VLAN A" which i monitor
by polling the bridges status on the Switch or the like.
The "VLAN A" service than has a dependency on the
Switch itself (which is implicit) and on the Firewall A.

For this i would need a Host beeing able to depend on
a _service_ on a different host.

From the Documentation this is not supported as when i leave
out the child_service (I want a host dependency on a service
on the parent host) it is automatically a Host dependency.
