Xiaowei Zhu commented on HDFS-11027:
------------------------------------
We should consider that if there are more cases we do not want to retry, for
example permission denied.
> libhdfs++: Don't retry if there is an authentication failure

> "Authentication failed" status falls into the general !status.ok() block in
> the HA retry policy so it will keep attempting to failover. If the client
> isn't kerberized, or doesn't have the right ticket it should give up and
> return a meaningful error message (right now it returns a generic bad
> connection failure string).
> Wouldn't hurt to check the FixedDelayRetryPolicy to make sure that doesn't
> also keep attempting to retry in the same way. I suspect it does.
