How does multiple server retry work?
« on: September 10, 2014, 07:10:53 am »
Well, after a while without "manually" downloading I have a lot to catch up. However I am having trouble with missing content to the point that I ended up trying 3 different provider and in between them I usually get the downloads to work.

My initial setup was: all connections to one provider and the other two as backup. The trouble when a content is not found it that alt.binz kills the connection! I talk about this here: https://www.altbinz.net/forum/requests/backup-server-behavior/msg28359/#msg28359

So, currently, specially due this, I am using unlimited on all 3. So I put then all as primary. My question in this case is: how "article not found" retries work for multiple primary servers? Is it smart to try all different servers or is it always based on lucky?

Thanks.
