Depends feature

["Stuffle, David (Corporate)" <David.Stuffle (at) adesa.com>]

I'm using the "depends" feature heavily for HTTP tests and it is doing
some weird things.  When a HTTP test fails, the status turns clear
saying the depended on test has failed, but it has not failed.   But
then the status turns red, then clear, then red, then clear...  See the
history below.  Each clear status increases by 5 seconds.  And I am
positive that the depended on test has not failed.

Syntax is like this:

0.0.0.0 http-a-chryslerfirst            # noconn
http://www.chryslerfirst.com=192.168.254.94
depends=(http:was-b-chryslerfirst/http,was-c-chryslerfirst/http)

 

Anyone experience the same thing or have any idea how to troubleshoot?
