########## File path: giraph-core/src/main/java/org/apache/giraph/comm/netty/ChannelRotater.java ########## @@ -73,9 +76,9 @@ public synchronized void addChannel(Channel channel) { */ public synchronized Channel nextChannel() { if (channelList.isEmpty()) { - throw new IllegalArgumentException( - "nextChannel: No channels exist for hostname " + - address.getHostName()); + LOG.warn("nextChannel: No channels exist for hostname " + + address.getHostName()); + return null; Review comment: This is called from NettyClient.getNextChannel() which will do a maximum number of retries. However, this counter is reset every time there is a failure, so it is possible that if the channel gets dropped, that we keep retrying. What I will do is make this counter global. The current max is 1000 retries, so that should be enough. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
