---------------------------------------------

Good point. Let me set timeout configurable.

> In Cellar, all commands seem to be set to timeout after 10s.
> This is causing us a lot of problems in situations when there are multiple Karaf Instances deployed on multiple nodes (we usually deploy a total of 12-14 overall instances on 4 different VMs), when Hazelcast tends to be really slow due to network traffic during cluster synchronization.
> In such a setup, running *cluster:group-set* can be very slow, and 50% of the time it times out. Once this happens, the node is unuseable, i.e. it enters an undefined state where it can not easily join or quit a cluster group any more.
> There are a couple of places in code where this can be found:
> org.apache.karaf.cellar.core.command.Command : timeout = 10000
> org.apache.karaf.cellar.core.event.EventDispatchTask : timeout = 10000
> (referencing Karaf 4.0.3 master)
> I can't find it right now, but a very similar thing seems to be implemented in Karaf Shell, where I think I saw the value being bumped from 10s to a higher value of 30s at some point in history (but still hard coded).
> Currently, we are working around this by re-implementing the *cluster:group-set* by invoking Karaf Cellar services directly (ClusterManager & GroupManager). Since we implemented this, we don't have problems with cluster set up any more.
> It would be great if this value could be somehow made configurable, or as the last resort, increased.
