In case the connection is lost (maybe due to a > changed DNS entry), the sink fails. > I propose to catch the Exception for lost connections in the {{invoke()}} > method and try to re-open the connection for a configurable number of times > with a certain delay. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
