Hi.

For this you usually use scrips. You need custom condition and custom
action. Check out snippets on the wiki.

RT has only resolved status by default and no closed. Here you can either
add a new status or use different linking schema.

On status. You add active status fixed and use it to indicate that problem
with trunk is fixed, but there are still active dependants. You can not use
inactive status and depends on linking. RT wouldn't allow you to resolve top
ticket unless all bottom are resolved.

You can use parent/child linking and resolve parent at any time.

Instead of making first ticket as top most you can create a ticket above it
to be parent of all these new circuit tickets.

Regards, Ruslan. From phone.
