In our flaky 7.6.04 system we would get false failures - the server was up but the OK never happened.
That has not happened in our stable 8.1 and 9x versions. It's been really dependable.

Typically, the server is up, and the Status Check reports it as up. I have had scenarios where the application server was entirely off, and was the only app server on the Mid-Tier server, and the Status Check was reporting as 200_OK....I've also experienced where it was NOT reporting 200_OK when the server was in fact online. I never went into specifics of why it was reporting the wrong status...I had my own servlet that I used that gave me everything I needed, accurately, without fail, so I simply used it instead. I was using Remedy/Mid-Tier 8.1.02 when this inconsistency was happening.
