Fixed In Version:	python-novajoin-1.2.1-0.20191114051100.c9299d5.el8ost	Doc Type:	Enhancement
Doc Text:	Previously, when Novajoin lost its connection to the IPA server, it would immediately attempt to reconnect. Consequently, timing issues could arise and prevent the connection from being re-established. With this update, you can use `retry_delay` to set the number of seconds to wait before retrying the IPA server connection. As a result, this is expected to help mitigate the timing issues.

Description Harry Rybacki 2019-10-31 14:31:47 UTC

Description of problem:

Presently, when novajoin fails to make a connection with the IPA
server, for any reason, it will immediately re-attempt to make
the connection when the backoff is unset (it is off by default).
As a result, any timing related issues could be the source of
the connection issues will likely result in no connection at all.

We need a way to delay the attempt to re-connect.
