Does hobbit work off of a parent/child relationship with hosts? Say i have a router at a site and 20 or so devices off of that router. If the router goes down will i get a page from all 20 something devices or can i set it up to where if that happens that i only get a page from the router. By the way Henrik, great job on bbgen/bb integration with Hobbit. This is fairly easy to setup and comes with alot of pre- packaged things that is really nice. Great Job!!!!! Josh

Sounds like you want to look at the 'route' or 'depends' tag for bb-hosts. Check the bb-hosts man page. Cheers. D

So in my hosts file i have put a line on one of my hosts hanging off of my switch: x.x.x.x switch-1 # badconn:1:1:5 x.x.x.x ups-1 # badconn:1:1:5 depends=(badconn:switch-1/badconn) So if how i have it set up in the hosts file if the switch goes down then it should only page out when the switch goes down and i should not see anything from the ups. Is that correct? thanks josh

I've not personally used the badTEST stuff, so I'm not sure which of these you need: depends=(badconn:switch-1/badconn) depends=(conn:switch-1/conn) I use route for this kind of thing, though I suppose either should work. x.x.x.x switch-1 # badconn:1:1:5 x.x.x.x ups-1 # badconn:1:1:5 route:switch-1 In this case when switch-1 goes down the conn test for ups-1 would show yellow, and clicking through to it would say something like: -- Mon Sep 10 08:30:56 2007 conn NOT ok : Intermediate router down Service conn on ups-1 is not OK. The router switch-1 (IP:x.x.x.x) is not reachable, causing this host to be unreachable. -- Cheers.
