Hi,

Does anyone know how to adjust the retry interval on the s3 output plugin when the connection fails? Default seems to be to retry ever 2 seconds or so but I want to change this to every 30 minutes.

There doesn't appear to be a built in function to do this but maybe this can be easily changed by changing a variable in a config file?

It would be nice to see a built in retry interval as well, many other plugins to seem to support this.
