When dsrutil dbname -C status is used, and the -detail or -verbose arguments were not included, only the status codes are returned. Meaning that no additional descriptive text is included. These status are essentially a pre-fixed group status code. This group is referred to as return code zero. One of the status codes in the following table is returned via stdout.

Table 1. Return code zero status code
If the status code is . . . It reflects the status for . . .
1xxx The server
2xxx The control agent
3xxx The agent
For example, if you passed DSRUTIL source-database -C status, then you might receive a return code of 1101. This would mean that the source database server is connected and processing is taking place. To get the status for each operation, a query might look like this:
1101	DSRUTIL source -C status       
2101	DSRUTIL source -C status agent1
3101	DSRUTIL target -C status
