Perhaps depends is broken (or we're all using it incorrectly, Henrik can
decide). There was a thread here last week about using the route keyword.
I found it. Also according to the bb-hosts man page
"route:router1,router2,....
This tag is taken from the "fping.sh" script, and is
used by bbtest-net when run with the "--ping" option to
enable ping testing."
I will give this a try
Thanks

Is there a way to quick test the depends tag besides changing the
host's ip to a fake one that the service depends on?
In other words if depends=(testA:host1/test1) I can change the host1's
ip in bb-hosts to test if depends working. Is there any other less
crude way to test it?
Hmm I changed the ip of host1 but still see hostA conn green
1.2.3.4 hostA.domain.net # conn depends=(conn:host1.domain.net/conn)
2.3.4.5 host1.domain.net # testip
I chaged the ip 2.3.4.5 to a non exist 1.1.1.1 ip and host1 conn went
red. But hostA still showing green
I missed this part in the man bb-hosts
"Since all tests are actually run before the dependencies are
evaluated,.."
So I change the ip of hostA to a non exist ip 2.2.2.2 and added testip
and I see hostA conn turned into red instead of clear now.
2.2.2.2 hostA.domain.net # conn depends=(conn:host1.domain.net/conn)
1.1.1.1 host1.domain.net # testip
both 2.2.2.2 and 1.1.1.1 are non exist and based on the depends tag
host1.conn goes red and hostA.conn should go clear but it actuallity
it tunr into red.
Please advise
Thanks
(all ips are masked here)
