Basically, "disabled" would be "in error" as in, "I detected an error on this worker" (I == httpd). stopped wouldn't be considered "in error" because it wasn't remove due to any sort of (automatic) error. So stopped is admintratively removed; disabled is automatically removed, as it were. I'd need to check all the places where we check for a usable worker, a worker in "error" etc, but that's all part of my plan to better define the diffs between these 2 states. > Regards > > Rüdiger > >> >> o Stopped: Administratively stopped.
