[hobbit] depends tag?

Try using the "route" tag to set up the dependencies.  Don't let all the
router talk in the documentation throw you...
 
x.x.x.x hostA     # ssh
y.y.y.y hostB    # ssh route:hostA

	We have the following:

	 

	x.x.x.x     hostA           # ssh 

	 

	y.y.y.y     hostB         # ssh
ldap://hostB.rit.edu:389/ou=People,dc=rit,dc=edu?uid?sub?(uid=authtest)
depends=(conn:hostA/conn),(ldap:hostA/conn)

	 

	 

	These run Solaris 10 zones.  hostA is the physical system, hostB
is a zone within hostA.  So if the hostA goes down, then hostB will be
down also.    However it appears that if the "conn" test fails for
hostA, it fails for hostB also, but hostB "conn" shows red, not clear.

	 

	Is this correct?  We have many Solaris 10 zones that if the
physical host goes down, then all the zones will fail the test too.  We
don't want to be emailed (or paged) with massive amounts of hosts going
down, when we know that other host test will fail.

	 

	Thanks.
