Leif Hedstrom commented on TS-5056:
-----------------------------------
An example of such harm is if the reason for the restart is a segfault, where
the repeated crashes would likely fill up the file system (unless there are
other safety mechanisms in place).
This was discussed in e.g. TS-348 as well.

> Project: Traffic Server

> Components: Manager
> Reporter: Daniel Xu

> Time Spent: 10m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h

> There should be a mechanism for {{traffic_server}} to signal to
> {{traffic_manager}} that {{traffic_server}} cannot be recovered with any
> amount of restarting.
> For example, if TS sees a bad log file, then no amount of restarting will fix
> TS. Thus, it would be better for TM to just sit tight and wait for human
> intervention.
