This is a very complex issue and an actual correlation engine would have to implemented by you. On the other hand, NagiosXI already has the ability to repress service alerts of a downed parent host. These are called service and host dependencies.

While the following doc is for Nagios Core the same ideas can be applied by you using the Core Config Manager:
