Nope, no need to remove the UNKNOWN state because it is true, we don't know
the state. But not have the check you mentioned. That is not do:

if (ServerState.UNKNOWN != currentState && ServerState.RUNNING !=
currentState)

would be ok. So the condition is simply:

if (ServerState.RUNNING !=
currentState)

I think this is more correct.
