[hobbit] Checking for mutually exclusive processes

[Brand, Thomas R.]

Hi Kevin,

 Unfortunately, that isn't what I need.

Given ProcessA and ProcessB,
 If ProcessA is running AND ProcessB is running
 then YELLOW
 else 
     if ProcessA is NOT running AND ProcessB is NOT running
     then YELLOW
     else GREEN


 ProcessA and ProcessB are mutually exclusive; one OR the other must 
be running, but not BOTH.
