Icinga2 Services - Notifications style

Hi Team,

I have a quick question… For example i have a host A that we do monitoring with icinga2… we have around 15-20 metrics for server A… Suddently A went down… If server went down… we will get notify for all the metrics? we will get tons of notifications right?.. For this particular case how icinga works?

“Icinga 2 automatically adds an implicit dependency for services on their
host. That way service notifications are suppressed when a host is DOWN or
UNREACHABLE.”
