I don't think this is critical. I think it is fair enough to ask people to reconfigure and restart their clients. Can't we rather enhance HR so that the shutting down servers would piggyback the "restart" information to the clients? When a client receives a restart response (similar to a topology change response), it restarts itself without requiring any manual work. How does it sound?
