M04 Q35 What are the Health Indicator statuses that are provided out of the box?

Spring Actuator provides following Health Indicator Statuses out of the box:

• UP - component or subsystem is functioning as expected
• DOWN - component or subsystem has suffered an unexpected failure
• OUT_OF_SERVICE - component or subsystem has been taken out of service and should not be used
• UNKNOWN - component or subsystem is in an unknown state

Based on Health Indicator Statuses from above, Spring will also perform default mapping of status to HTTP Response Code with usage of HealthStatusHttpMapper that follows this default configuration:

• UP -> HTTP 200
• UNKNOWN -> HTTP 200
• DOWN -> HTTP 503
• OUT_OF_SERVICE -> HTTP 503

You can change default mapping with usage of management.health.status.http-mapping property, for example:
