Hello all!
I have a question, would it be hard to implement some kind of pseudo monitor,
or does it exist?
Instead of executing new monitors the pseudo monitor only monitors the result
of other monitors or watches.
The pseudo monitor is not an external monitor. It should be implemented
internally in mon "core", since all the data from all other monitors is in
there...
Like the example below, instead of running all monitors again, the pseudo
monitor looks on the result returned by other monitors. The pseudo monitor
should trigger an error if the checked service/watch has failed
Maybe this "feature" is allready possible using the 'depend' feature. If so,
it's obioulsy not clear to me howto! (i'm using depend, only to supress
alerts/monitors)
Maybe not the clearest example, but it's late and I have to go home...
