Re: clients not detecting end, not writing log

Danno,

        Your client(s) do not quit because they want to make sure that
all other clients and servers reached phase synchronization point, but
they cannot make sure because the servers are gone.

        Please use the "--idle_tout 3min" option on the server side to
prevent servers from exiting before clients. Alternatively, you can
disable phase synchronization using the "--sync_phases no" option (not
recommended).

        To force a Polygraph process to flush the logs and quit, send
it an INT signal.

Alex.
