We have already fixed that in the past and I was hoping the lesson was learned. Apparently it was not, and we are doomed to do this mistake for ever!! What ever crap fails times out and crashes, in the recovery code, we don't give a dam. It should never affect any Server-client communication. When the grace periods ends the clients gates opens period. *Any* error return from state recovery code must be carefully ignored and normal operations resumed. At most on error, we move into a mode where any recovery request from client is accepted, since we don't have any better data to verify it. Please comb recovery code to make sure any catastrophe is safely ignored. We already did that before and it used to work. >>> --b.
