on a 30 second interval, invoking `ping -c1 google.com`. On a `script`-based
health check, the check runs as the same user that started the Consul process.
If the command exits with a non-zero exit code, then the node will be flagged
unhealthy. This is the contract for any `script`-based health check.
If the command exits with an exit code >= 2, then the check will be flagged as
failing and the service will be considered unhealthy. This is the contract
for any `script`-based health check.
The second command modifies the service named `web`, adding a check that sends a
request every 10 seconds via curl to verify that the web server is accessible.

the service will be flagged unhealthy.
As with the host-level health check, if the script exits with an exit code >= 2,
the check will be flagged as failing and the service will be considered unhealthy.
