[Dependency] Application status goes down when there's a network outage.

Hi All,

I have setup dependency choosing MPLS Router as a parent and choosing a group object which contain many node as a child of this dependency.

Then I pull out a LAN cable from MPLS Router to test a dependency (SolarWinds server locate in other office and monitoring through MPLS Network)

Overall my dependency is working fine. All application of each node status was going to 'unknown' state instead of 'down'

However, There are Linux VMs that ignore my dependency. They're still sending alert email.

When I go to check an Application Events of these Linux VM I found that it status go to 'down' state...

Anyone know why did these Linux VM ignore dependency setup ?

P.S. these Linux VM belong to two group. One of the two group has been setup as a child of dependency.
