Description

The status resource provides the configured and current status of a server machine.

The configured status represents the state of the resource as you have configured it to be. For example, starting a server machine would set its configured status to be STARTED. The status is persisted to the configuration store.

However, it is possible that the configured state may not match the actual state of the resource. The real-time status represents the actual state of a resource. For instance, consider that you have configured the server machine to be STARTED but the machine was abruptly powered off. In this case, its real-time status would be STOPPED. The real-time status information is harvested when the request is made, and it is not persisted.

For most purposes, the real-time status should be used.
