If the ECS Streamer driver detects that an ECS node has failed or has become unavailable, ECS Streamer marks the node as bad and retries the I/O on another node.
ECS Streamer retries the unavailable ECS node after 12 minutes with ECS Streamer version 2.0.3.1 and after 2 hours with previous versions.
