Connecting different service to one service, creating different escalation-levels

[Michael Hüttig]

Hi,
Ooops, just pressing <STRG-ENTER>, here is the complete message:

i think it's a development-feature:

Very usefull idea would it be, to connect some services via boolean operators 
like AND, OR, NOT,  XOR to another service.

Explanation:
host1-hme0 AND host1-qfe0 AND host1-qfe1 => Service (host1-interfaces) in
some state. Maximum-escalation-level is 2

There have been also a request for escalations:
thinking about a Hardware-RAID5

 host2-disk1 state critical creates a warning state

Service (host2-disks) == (host2-disk1 [critical] AND host2-disk2 [critical]) 
or (host1-disk1[critical] AND host2-disk4 [activ {HOT-Spare-Drive}]) creates 
a critical1(dark-yellow) state for services of host2. 
This failure can only escalate to level 2.

So lets connect the example-services together:

Service (host1-interfaces) AND Service (host2-disks) AND Service 
(Host3-Web-server) AND Service (Host4-another-service) create a 
critical3-Level and be able to escalate to level 4

I think, it's a little bit difficult to understand, what i'm meaning ?!? ;-)

Any suggestions?

Michael
