[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (AS7-2984) Add wait attribute to rehashing element of distributed caches

[RH Bugzilla Integration (JIRA)]

Yesterday I had a chat with dberindei on this. The problem here is that this is not an exception that occurs due to exceeded timeout while waiting on state transfer lock. In our tests we have the timeout set to 10 minutes and e.g. in the resilience test no state transfer took more than 10 sec.

This happens when the lock is denied immediately as a result of state transfer being started with different delays on different nodes (as explained in ISPN-1610) to prevent deadlock:

https://github.com/infinispan/infinispan/blob/master/core/src/main/java/org/infinispan/statetransfer/StateTransferLockImpl.java#L296

The situation that causes this exception to appear is quite normal and expected, but the exception and the error message by which it is reported is not a suitable one.
