Hi,
I'm using HM for testing my switchs (10) and my NT server (13) by ping test (every 5sec.) I've got a master switch so that it is declarate in the "depend windows" of the other switch.
the problem is: if this "master switch" is down, some of the other are testing until the new test of the master is made. so instead of receive 1 mail that inform me that the master is down, I receive about 3 or 5 mail for the other one.
How can I synchronise my tests ?
Thanks and excuse me for my poor english.
Synchronisation pb
If you set test interval to 5 sec, you can decrease "Consider status of the master test obsolete after N seconds" counter. This option located on Behavior page in the Options dialog. It determines whether the Master test status is up-to-date.

RegardsConsider status of the master test obsolete after N seconds
This parameter is used by the program to determine whether the Master test status is up-to-date. Before starting a dependent test HostMonitor checks the status values of the Master tests defined on it. The parameter mandates for how long a Master test status is considered to be current.

Cédric,
I think new test is not necessary. You can set "Consider status of the master test obsolete after N seconds" to 1 second. In this case HostMonitor will always perform master test before dependant test.
H'm, I just saw HostMonitor does not allow you to set this option to 1 second, minimum value is 5 sec.
Ok, corrected. There are update http://www.ks-soft.net/download/hm323a.zip
