So, I have been trying for the better part of the day and night to get alerts 
to work the way we need them to work. Which is to only page about a service 
that is down as long as the host is not down.

If the host is down, do not alert on the failed services, and only alert us 
with the host is down page. Since if the host is down then so should be the 
services.

I've been searching the forums and still have not found a answer for what I am 
trying to do. The only thing that comes close is this link
http://community.zenoss.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1741&highlight=alert

But this still does not answer what I am trying to do.
