Re: [monit] Wait for dependencies to start

[Philippe Muller]

Hi Martin,

I can't imagine how much work it would be on the developper side. But from my user point of view, I'm sure it would be a great feature for Monit. Of course, I'll use it on my grid :-)

Thanks!

Hi Philippe,

currently only correct sequence is enforced, but the child services don't wait doe their parent to come up (soft dependency).

We can add hard dependencies in next monit release (child will wait for its parent to come up).

Martin
