> In trunk, there is no maximum number of retries that I see.  It appears the 
> connection will be retried forever, with the active never figuring out it's 
> no longer active.  In my testing, the active-active state lasted almost 2 
> hours with no sign of stopping before I killed it.  The solution appears to 
> be to cap the number of retries or amount of time spent retrying.
> This issue is significant because of the asynchronous nature of job 
> submission.  If the active doesn't know it's not active, it will buffer up 
> job submissions until it finally realizes it has become the standby. Then it 
> will fail all the job submissions in bulk. In high-volume workflows, that 
> behavior can create huge mass job failures.
> This issue is also important because the node managers will not fail over to 
> the new active until the old active realizes it's the standby.  Workloads 
> submitted after the old active loses contact with ZK will therefore fail to 
> be executed regardless of which RM the clients contact.
