Re: [hobbit] depends & conn test

Thanks for the reply ,
Unfortunately for me, it appears that "route" only affects ping ( "conn" ) tests. So, I can't use route for the ssh checks, and I can't make the ssh test depend on another host's conn test. I could setup a yahoo www test, and try to use that as a dependency, hopefully that works. 

thanks

I have never been able to get depends to work. You should use the 'route' tag on the host to have a dependency, such as: 1.1.1.1 <http://1.1.1.1> foo 
2.2.2.2 <http://2.2.2.2> bar # ssh noconn route:foo
or more hops: 1.1.1.1 <http://1.1.1.1> foo 2.2.2.2 <http://2.2.2.2> bar # ssh noconn route:router1,vpnrouter,vpnrouter2 
3.3.3.3 <http://3.3.3.3> router1
4.4.4.4 <http://4.4.4.4> vpnrouter
5.5.5.5 <http://5.5.5.5> vpnrouter2
This would assume the environment is like this: (hobbitserver and foo) > router1 > vpnrouter > vpnrouter2 > bar On 10/9/07, *Daniel Bourque* <dbourque (at) weatherdata.com <mailto:dbourque (at) weatherdata.com>> wrote: 

    Hi,

        I've looked up the list archive and there doesn't seem to be
    any answer to this problem, the "depends" doesn't work with the
    "conn" test.

        I have a bunch of remote kiosks connected via vpn and other
    means. Some I can ping and some I can't. I can always ssh to them,
    therefore ssh is the main connectivity test for all them.

        I'm trying make those test dependent on our internet connection.

       In my bb-hosts file, I've added www.yahoo.com
    <http://www.yahoo.com/> as a host and added  depends=(ssh:
    www.yahoo.com/conn <http://www.yahoo.com/conn>)  to the kiosk
    machine definition in the bb-hosts file.

       In order to test that, I setup hosts foo and bar in my lab,
    defined the,as follow:

    x.x.x.x foo
    x.x.x.x bar # ssh noconn depends=(ssh:foor/conn)


    I unplug foo and bar's network cable, and sometimes later I get a
    page regarding the ssh on bar

    interestingly, bar's ssh test history shows this:

    Anyone using the conn test as a dependency out there ? Can anyone
    confirm that is does or does NOT work ?

    Thanks
