RE: [hobbit] The Depends Tag

["Eric Meddaugh" <etmsys (at) rit.edu>]

I use the "route" tag for that instead:

 

192.168.192.20          toronto         # trace conn 

192.168.192.21          oriole           # trace conn route:Toronto

 

You'd get an alert on Toronto......  someone please correct me if my
understanding is wrong.

Fellow Hobbit users,

 

I need a little help with something, it has stumped me...

 

 

I have two hosts on the same network, if one goes down. The other will
be down also because of a switch issue. I don't want to receive two
alerts. So I wrote in the depends tag, is this correct format???

 

192.168.192.20          toronto         # trace conn 

192.168.192.21          oriole           # trace conn
depends=(conn:toronto/conn)

 

 

If toronto is down and oriole is down, I just one one email alert.

 

Thanks for the help, michael
