Re: [REPOST] [PATCH] emi2 driver login behaviour

From Lars' original Arch document, requirements section:

[If one of the hosts running the gateway crashes (or the gateway component 
running on that host crashes), the rest of the gateway must continue to work. 
If the crashed component recovers, the rest of the gateway needs to start 
using it again. Likewise, for load balancing, new components must be able to 
connect to the rest of the gateway while running. Sessions and transactions 
that were running on the crashed component may be terminated, i.e., it is not 
necessary to migrate them to another component. ]

I think this can be interpreted to say that a failed connection should also
not shut things down.  :-)
