You're looking at a "padded" error code - most likely as a result of running the command within a (perl) script.

You need to un-pad the value first like:

my $status = qx($odcmd 2>&1);
if ($status){
    $status >>= 8; # shift the bits to un-pad to return code
    print "Error [$status] ....";
}

In this case, 256 is a commonly seen value. 256 >> 8 = 1.

You should probably open a support case here though - because while the help for the old utility (iwodstart -h) displays the error codes (1 = "starting of the deployment failed"), the help for the new command (iwodcmd -h / iwodcmd start -h) does not provide that information.

From iwodstart -h:

      exit code:
        0         - succeeded
        1         - starting of the deployment failed
        2         - deployment ran and returned a failed status
        9         - deployment completed with errors
