I know the script, but I don't think it takes the target state of the service in account. Which means an alert would be given if a service is down, even if the target state for that service on that node is "offline". I know I can write the script I need by using the right amount of grep, cut and awk, but I was hoping there was a way to query the cluster registry in such a way that all these manipulations where not necessary (or at least not in this high amount).
