I think the route tag will suppress some of the tests if conn fails.
Otherwise you are out of luck.  I believe that some sort of general
"root cause" or "dependency-based suppression" is on Henrik's "to do"
list (if I remember a previous post), but probably not at the top, and
certainly not in the current version of the product.

	we don't use ping at all. can I specify a service (ssh or other
abitrary service) of hostA instead? In other words, will the following
work? The man page of bb-hosts made it sounds like
'route:router1,route2' replies on ping or something? 
	
	x.x.x.x hostA     # ssh
	y.y.y.y hostB    # ssh route:hostA.ssh

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
