I was wondering that too. Maybe it was just making a trip to the web server and back telling the client the web server was up and all that would serve was show the login.jsp page successfully. A trip to the AR Server would be necessary to check for the response of the AR Server as well. This would mean you need to send another signal to the AR Server immediately before or after the status check for the mid-tier using one of the available tools like arsignal or arcreateentry or something simlar..

Any API-call to the AR Server? Why did it return the opposite of what it was supposed to show?
