Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-10127:
-----------------------------------------

Doesn't the retry policy mechanism let you do this with things like timed 
intervals, exponential backoff etc. You set a short #of retries in the client, 
and hand it off to the policy to react to failures?

> Add ipc.client.connect.retry.interval to control the frequency of connection 
> retries

> Currently, the client attempts to connect to the server every 1 second. It 
> would be nice to make this configurable so that the client can connect 
> more/less frequently. Changing the number of retries alone is not granular 
> enough.
