I just tested this today and can confirm that bringing a backend server back
in works for me with "100%", "99%", etc.
Also, "down" reliably takes the server out of the backend, and only a
percentage such as "50%" brings it back in.
For those struggling, I will say that the status string returned from the
socket on the backend server must have a newline terminator, or perhaps a
carriage return. Simon's example using echo does this by default.
I was testing with a simple python socket server, and couldn't get anything
to work. As soon as I used client.send("down" + '\n'), everything worked.
I had to add debug statements to src/checks.c to find this.
Depending on the software you use to return the status to the agent, it may
be worth checking if you are having issues.
