... have arrived. The intention (and the way they currently work) is that they remove the need for servicedependencies like this: define servicedependency { host_name A service_description Foo dependent_host_name B dependent_service_description Bar notification_failure_options w,u,c }
Currently they totally ignore state "hardness", and only care about the actual state. You can have parents residing on a different host (in which case you have to specify host_name,service_description in the parents field, naturally), or you can have same-host parents, in which case you only need to specify the service description. This only works so long as there's only a single parent though, but since that's how 99.9% of the servicedependencies seem to work in the configurations people sent me after my "Call for configs", I guess that's reasonable for a first implementation anyway. Speaking of which; Thanks a bunch for the configs. You know who you are, although some of you didn't want me to name you in any thank-you's, so I'll refrain from posting the full, and surprisingly long, list of people. Your help was invaluable and helped me uncover many a bug that would otherwise have earned me a lot of hatemail. For the (extremely) common "depend on a client version check" thing, that would look something like this: define service { use some-suitable-template host_name A description NRPE Disk / parents NRPE Version Check } although I expect you crafty folks will put such things in templates and be done with it very quickly.
