Some sites are reporting as being down, but we can’t verify it and our hosting company (SiteGround) says they’re not going down at all. All of these potential false negatives are recorded in WPMUDEV as “Socket timeout”.
I found out that this error means that my site could be very slow responding in the reported time.
The problem is that the downtime is showing in the reports we send to the clients, but we and our hosting company nor our client nor anyone can confirm they’re down.
How can these socket timeouts be represented differently in reports and notifications?
