I don't know. What I will do is write a plugin that is capable of
performing several check-host-alive thingies in a parallellized manner,
thus moving *some* of the logic for it out of Nagios.
For this to work, Nagios needs to be modified slightly, so that the
following rules can be used with the plugin.
1. The plugin should check a host by ping AND tcp-connectivity.
2. The plugin should never return non-zero due to its own internal workings.
3. The plugin should be able to determine which host is 'first' in the
chain.
4. The plugin should only report down for the first host that actually
IS down in a chain.
For rule 3 above to work, Nagios needs to be modified somewhat. This is
Ethan's job, so I can't really say when (or even if) it will make it in.
I'll write to him right away though, and offer to fix this up.
