Description John Sanda 2013-04-18 22:30:50 EDT

Description of problem:
Executing "rhq-agent-wrapper.sh status" when the agent is not running returns a value 1. Non-zero exit values should only be used when there is some error condition. This can/does cause problems for other scripts that call rhq-agent-wrapper.sh. 

I stumbled onto this while working on the rhqctl script (being developed in the feature/cassandra-backend branch). It is currently causing an exception in the Java code that invokes the script due to the non-zero exit value.
