Comment (by robin):
Haven't looked at the code yet but I'm wondering about the right semantics
for a non-zero code. Intuitively I'd expect non-zero if the command had
seriously failed but it's a bit fuzzy when a command succeeded vs. failed;
if {{{start}}} started up the whole cluster except for one node which is
currently down, is that a failure? What semantics is the patch currently
using?
Plugins have the {{{hostStatusChanged}}} method. Would that help as an
alternative?
