Questiona about req.backend.healthy

[Rangel, Raul]

Oops,
I guess you can't reference the backend like I said.

In that case just check req.backend.healthy because you already assigned the backend to the request.

Ok thanks but if i write 

sub vcl_recv {
    set req.backend = be1;
    if (be1.healthy) {
    set req.grace = 30s;
    std.log("###################### Grace 30s");
  } else {
    std.log("###################### Grace 1h");
    set req.grace = 1h;
  }	
...

and restart Varnish the compiler fails.

Message from VCC-compiler:
Symbol not found: 'be1.healthy' (expected type BOOL):
('input' Line 125 Pos 9)
    if (be1.healthy) {
--------###############---

Running VCC-compiler failed, exit 1

I'm missing something ?

Thanks
