What resources are you going to save?  I think Henrik already takes some
evasive action in the standard Hobbit.  If you start down this path you
will end up with a big maintenance burden, simply to save on pings...or
are you trying to disable some expensive tests?

	I guess you can code a disable/enable script, to be called by
hobbit-alerts.cfg's SCRIPT directive for that particular router.
	I am not aware of such built-in functions, admitt that I am just
a few months old on Hobbit Monitor.

		Hi,
		 
		I used the dependencies feature in bb-hosts to avoid
many red systems behind a failing router which is really extremely
useful.
		 
		However, I'd like to go a step further - to save
resources I'd like stop all tests for systems behind a failing router.
Is there a way to achieve this?
