[jira] [Commented] (FLUME-827) Avro client conn failure results in 60-second wait before terminating

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-827?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13140952#comment-13140952 ] 

E. Sammer commented on FLUME-827:
---------------------------------

Will:

I was thinking about this and was thinking that the client should retry indefinitely (with warnings in the logs). The rationale is similar to that of FLUME-823. In this case, though, there's the potentially common possibility that the Avro server to which the client is connecting (e.g. another flume node in a tiered collection deployment) disappears temporarily (e.g. is restarted, a network partition). Ideally, the client would reestablish the connection, in this case, and continue transferring data. Thoughts?

> Launching the avro client when the Flume NG node isn't yet running will result in a conn refused error. The client should then shutdown immediately, but instead waits for 1 minute before the client is terminated.
