Hey all,
 I've found some references to the depends tag, and I'm trying to use it.

1.1.1.1 host.bb # depends=(conn:host2.bb/conn)
1.1.1.2 host2 #

The reason I'm attempting to use depends vs the route tag is that
route sets the conn test as yellow, which generates pages, whereas the
depends tag should make it clear.

 Am I doing something wrong, is the code broken, help?

 Xymon version : 4.2.0

Thanks!

Hi Patrick,

I think you have a typo in your configuration. Your host "host.bb" 
depends on the not existing host "host2.bb"

A working example should be:

  1.1.1.1 host.bb #
  1.1.1.2 host2 # depends=(conn:host.bb/conn)

Here "host2" depends on "host.bb".

Regards,
 Alexander
