 `active`:: The conditions for the rule have been met, and the associated actions should be invoked.

+`ok`:: The conditions for the rule have not been met, and the associated actions are not invoked.
 `error`:: An error was encountered during rule execution.
 `pending`:: The rule has not yet executed.  The rule was either just created, or enabled after being disabled.
 `unknown`:: A problem occurred when calculating the status. Most likely, something went wrong with the alerting code.
