exit codes > 0 returned by the generator are treated as errors and
systemd will log about this when the generator is run. You'll get an
error message like this in the journal:

Mai 09 12:41:46 pluto systemd[1]: Reloading.
Mai 09 12:41:47 pluto systemd[5481]:
/lib/systemd/system-generators/test failed with exit status 1.

Can you be more specific about you are trying to do?
