The exit code of the
status
command has to be one of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4,69 to be correctly understood by Ansible, but was returning
253
when the agent was not running on linux kernel versions 3.18+
Normalize the exit code to 0 or 1 to avoid the issue.
See https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-core/blob/cbbb20b6bf0d82fdc92f064c9e4d18c04f203da6/system/service.py#L590
Fixes #1976
More generally we could try to stick more closely to the LSB specs for the exit code of the
status
command.
