"""This library defines the exit states of a monitoring check, based on the
POSIX spec of returning a positive value and just like in
`monitoring-plugins/plugins-scripts/utils.sh.in`, except that we do not
make use of `STATE_DEPENDENT`.

* STATE_OK = 0:
  The service was checked and appeared to be functioning properly.

* STATE_WARN = 1:
  The service was checked, but it appeared to be above some "warning"
  threshold or did not appear to be working properly.

* STATE_CRIT = 2:
  Either the service was not running, or it was above some "critical"
  threshold.

* STATE_UNKNOWN = 3:
  Invalid command line arguments were supplied, or a low-level failure
  internal to the calling program (such as unable to fork, or open a tcp
  socket) prevented it from performing the specified operation.
  Higher-level errors (such as name resolution errors, socket timeouts,
  etc) are outside of the caller's control and should generally NOT be
  reported as UNKNOWN states.
