Hi,

I'am fairly new to mon but i'am currently facing the following problem

We want to monitor 2 interfaces with mon and when the 2 interfaces are
down mon should perform an action.

So I want a dependency from the first check on the second check.
But when reading the docs it seems that a second check/alert is only
performed when the first is ok. In our case it should still do the
second check (even if the first check reports that the interface is
down).
So is this possible?

<snip>

watch remotemachines
        service ping
        description ping servers on remote side
        interval 1m
        monitor fping.monitor
        period wd {Mon-Sun}
                // don't do anything

watch mrvmachines
        service fibre
        description monitor link state on mrv fibre devices
        interval 1m
        monitor fibre.monitor // own script which checks via snmp if interface 
is up
        depend remotemachines.ping
        period wd {Mon-Sun}
                // perform alert script that does certain things
                // only if this check AND the first check report a failure

Kind regards,
