Your server may still be in the process of shutting down when your
"wait_for" is executed. So the wait_for could make a connection and think
the server is back up when it is actually on its way down...
Try setting the delay parameter in the wait_for (e.g to 15) to ensure that
the server is down/rebooting before waif_for starts checking.
