Yeah, I've done that. Just does seem to be pretty redundant to send out UNREACHABLE alerts when a parent is DOWN, imo... :-) It has it's benefits. That's why it can be enabled and disabled, just like all the other notification types. -- Marc - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

This is not wanted. Shouldn't happen if your host checks work properly and you have the parents directive properly set up to match your environment. To be more specific, when a border-router or similar goes down, unreachable notifications are sent out for a number of connected machines, vms and so forth; which is pretty obvious imo... This seems to be the main issue DOWNs leading to UNREACHABLES. If you don't want the UNREACHABLE alerts, just disable them. - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
