Product section

Server Application Monitor

Cause

An exit code of 1 inicates that the script has failed. As such, no parsing of output is performed to gather Statistic or Message values.

Resolution

To monitor a value and compare it against a threshold, set the statistic value as needed and exit with a value of 0. You can then adjust the thresholds within the Monitor to fail or not, depending on the value received.
