<p><strong>Servicedependency -</strong><strong> </strong><strong>execution failure criteria</strong><strong></strong></p>
<p>This directive is used to specify the criteria that determine when the dependent service should <em>not</em> be actively checked.  If the <em>master</em> service is in one of the failure states we specify, the <em>dependent</em> service will not be actively checked. Valid options are a combination of one or more of the following (multiple options are separated with commas): <br><strong>o</strong> = fail on an OK state, <br><strong>w</strong> = fail on a WARNING state, <strong><br>u</strong> = fail on an UNKNOWN state, <br><strong>c</strong> = fail on a CRITICAL state, and <br><strong>p</strong> = fail on a pending state (e.g. the service has not yet been checked).  <br>If you specify <strong>n</strong> (none) as an option, the execution dependency will never fail and checks of the dependent service will always be actively checked (if other conditions allow for it to be).</p>
<p>Example: If you specify <strong>o,c,u</strong> in this field, the <em>dependent</em> service will not be actively checked if the <em>master</em> service is in either an OK, a CRITICAL, or an UNKNOWN state.</p>
