#2 sounds a lot like "flapping". Does "depends" honor flapping or would a flapping server still show red? Or am I not understanding the situation?

I have the following in my 'hosts.cfg':
209.85.225.105 google.com # http://www.google.com XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX www # trace http://www depends=(http: google.com/http)
Yesterday, the web server (www) was down for 55 minutes. The Xymon record shows that:
- google.com/http was green for that whole period
- www/http bounced between red and clear for the whole period (with a bounce frequency of 5 minutes)
- My other Xymon server (configured without "depends") shows a solid 55 minute outage (red for 55 minutes).
This behavior is not what I expect from reading the man page.
I tried to reproduce this problem with "depends" on my test Xymon server and was able to confirm the same behavior.
Is there a workaround to this problem with my Xymon 4.3.10 server?
cheers,
Troy
