You may enable "Action depends on bad one" option for corresponding "good" action.
========================
Action depends on "bad" one
This optional parameter is available for "Good" actions only. You can set "Good" action dependable on a "Bad" action. Why do you need it? For example you defined "Bad" action to send an e-mail notification to the network administrator when test fails 3 times consecutively (start when 3 consecutive "Bad" results occur), also you defined «Good» action to send a notification when the test status changes to "Good". What will happen if test fails 1 or 2 times and after this it restores "Good" status? HostMonitor will not send a notification about failure (because test did not fail 3 times) but the program will send notification about restoring "Good" status. To avoid unnecessary "Good" action execution you can mark "Action depends on "bad" one" option and select "Bad" action. In this case HostMonitor will start "Good" action only if corresponding "Bad" action was executed.

This option ("Action depends on bad one") is usefull when you are using Contion to start Bad action like: "Start when N consecutive "Bad" results occur" where N>1.
Or maybe you want to start "Good" action only after test goes from "Bad" to "Ok" status, but not from "Unknown" to "Ok" status ?
