Re: [jbosstools-dev] Docker connections in Docker Tooling - request for feedback

I would propose another option: when the refresh detects that the docker daemon is not reachable, it does not stop refreshing but rather switch to a failed state and increase the refresh timer (following a kind of fibonnacci or exponentioal factor). If the user expand and connection is in failed state, then we should reset the timer and try to fetch data. WDYT ?
