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

             Summary: No retry on DNS lookup failure
                 Key: CURATOR-229
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CURATOR-229
             Project: Apache Curator
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Framework
    Affects Versions: 2.7.0
            Reporter: Michael Putters


Our environment is setup so that host names (rather than IP addresses) are used when registering services.

When disconnecting a node from the network, it will attempt to reconnect and - in order to do this - attempts to resolve a host name, which fails (since we have no network connectivity and a DNS server is used).

It appears this type of exception is no retryable, and the node simply gives up and never reconnects, even when the network connectivity is back.

Is this the expected behavior? Is there any way to configure Curator so that this type of exception is retryable? I had a look at {{CuratorFrameworkImpl.java}} around line 768 but there doesn't seem to be anything configurable.

If this is not the expected behavior (or if it is but you don't mind making it configurable), I should be able to provide a patch via a pull request.
