Hi All,

I know the issue with relayd reconnects have been discussed earlier here:
http://lists.lttng.org/pipermail/lttng-dev/2014-October/023650.html

But has there been any further development on this? 
I would actually go as far as calling it a bug and submitting it to redmine 
tracker, but want to get approval here first.

I would argue that its *always* a good idea to do reconnects due to that you 
really dont have any end-to-end control of the TCP flow. 
Some random router might decide to spuriously drop your connection, not to 
mention more modern queuing disciplines which might randomly throw away packets.

On automated systems, that would mean that you have to somehow automagically 
detect that you got a disconnect, and then externally restart the session, 
which seems like a very weird workaround...

I would be happy to file such a issue to the tracker if people thinks its a 
good idea, (and depending on if I have the time I *might* look into solving it 
myself). 
But it might be some time away in that case..

Regards,
Jesper
