Deleted real server string patch

[Dung Nguyen]

Jaro,
I've thought about the verbage and do agree with you.  However, I wanted to
keep the change to a minimal because some organization out there may already
be monitoring the logs for the existing strings.  That's why I choosed to
change the string for the lesser critical of the two messages.  I opted to
retain the exact string for the failure/restore due to status checks since
these are unplanned events.  I was hoping that this patch could be applied
with minimal changes to organizational practices/procedures.

-Dung
