Hi everyone.  I'm using pgpool-II 3.0.4 with PostgreSQL 9.0.2, in streaming 
replication mode.  We've had
a couple of cases where pgpool-II got a network timeout while performing a 
health check on the master
node, and then immediately initiated failover and promoted the slave.  This was 
a problem in our case
because the master was actually fine -- there was just a temporary network 
"hiccup" that caused a timeout.

Is there any way to configure pgpool-II to retry in this case?  I couldn't find 
one in the documentation.

I did see the "Unplugged Wire" thead 
(http://pgfoundry.org/pipermail/pgpool-general/2010-March/002589.html),
which indicates that there was a single retry at one point, which was removed.  
But what I am more interested
in is a configurable number of retries, with a configurable delay between 
retries.
