interpretation of status/colour for combo test

[Buchan Milne <bgmilne (at) staff.telkomsa.net>]

I have been asked to provide an availability number for a number of services 
monitored as separate hosts with Hobbit. Eg, two different IP addresses 
running a few different services, and we need to provide an availability 
number for the combination (eg, when was everything working correctly).

I have set up a rule in bbcombotest.cfg, but according to the man page, green, 
yellow or clear result in 1 ("true"), and red, purple or blue result in 0 
("false").

However, I would like the combined service to appear "down" when one of the 
monitored services is yellow (eg smtp being yellow indicates a failure).

It would be nice if some of this were configurable, or if each state had a 
distinct value.

Regards,
Buchan
