Webmon - The serverState headline cell and scenario's status column shows different values

The Webmon (also known as Web Mon, Web-Mon, and WebMon) sampler’s serverState headline cell and status column show different values. The values of those cells come from different command outputs.

Below is an image that shows the conflicting values:

Webmon sampler’s conflicting values

The serverState headline cell is UNAVAILABLE, while the scenario’s status column is OK. Their values are a result of the following commands:

curl -I -X GET http://<configured host value>:<configured port>

For example:

curl -I -X GET <http://192.168.101.75:80>

curl -I -X GET http://<configured scenario host value>:<configured scenario port>/<configured page>

For example:

curl -I -X GET <http://192.168.101.75:30044/ORB>

The following XML is the Webmon sampler used in this article:
