Re: [Nagios-users] Alert Precedence
Please paste the config of the host and the service from which you received the notification (in UI - show config). Also show the relevant entries of the Nagios event log.

When the host is down (hard) then you won't receive any alerts for the services defined in this host. What is likely in your case, is that you have scheduled the service checks more often or faster to alert before the host check. This will result in some alerts of services before the actual host down alert comes. You should check out the event log to determine which checks happened faster to become a hard critical state.
