<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">But after a re-deploy the reconnection failed. Now I have even tried restarted collectd but Fast jmx still seems to be unable to connect. I am able to connect
to jmx via jconsole so the server is certainly good.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">JMX over RMI (at least the Oracle/Sun/OpenJDK implementation) has a heartbeat timer (default I think is like 60 seconds or 5 minutes, I don’t recall which) that pings the remote server.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">If that times out (or the socket is explicitly closed) it marks the connection failed. The FastJMX plugin will detect that (it takes a while — several minutes is common — by the time the heartbeat fires and any timeout threshold is hit)
and then initiates a reconnect attempt.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Reconnects occur with a multiplied back off, so you don’t just keep hammering a ‘dead’ server. I believe the upper limit on the back off is 5 minutes, but I could be mistaken. Eventually I’ll get around to making that configurable.<u></u><u></u></p>
