[omniNotify] Consumer failure handling?

Hi all,

If the NotificationService fails to push an event to a
StructuredPushConsumer for any reason (say a TRANSIENT) will it
automatically assume that the consumer is no longer valid and clean up? Or
will it retry the event a couple of times before giving up and flagging the
consumer offline?

I ask this because we are seeing consumers occassionally stop receiving new
events. This behaviour is obvious as we run multiple instances of an
application, on the same workstation, that all subscribe identically.
Occasionally we will observe that one of these applications will stop
receiving new events while the others will continue quite happily.

Very strange behaviour, and very difficult to debug.

Thanks
Cameron
