Hi all,
I've heard from a Nagios(?)-feature that I would like to see in (a future) Hobbit release very much, alerting based on dependies. Let me explain why:
Suppose two red conditions:
1-a disk failure (hardware error) -> support rep A is warned
2-an application failure on that particular disk -> support rep B is warned
but...
It's no use alerting support rep B while that disk is still unavailable. You would like to be warned after the disk has recovered or replaced. Than error 1 will be green again, but it is possible that test 2 still has errors. So I would like to set up a sort of dependancy between test 2 and 1. Alert me for the application, but the disk must be useable (status green).
Will this be possible some day?
