If there is an error running the query, the loader will not remove all 
members.  Only if the database successfully returns no records.  Are you sure 
that is what happened?

Subject: [grouper-users] grouper-loader fail safe / threshold for failed 
connections

So we had a network outage, and the connection between grouper-loader
and our oracle database failed. This caused zero entries to be returned
when loader ran. When pspng provisioned out to our ldap, it undid the
attributes for the people we expected from the back end oracle database.

Is there a way I can tell grouper that if grouper-loader experiences a
*connection* problem with the back end database, do not do anything;
just exit with an appropriate rc? Is there a way I can kick off a script
before to check for connectivity that stops the loader process based on
its rc?

I've seen the threshold value, but don't know if it would make sense. We
expected only 40 peoples' data elements from the back end database. Say
I put the threshold to 40, then as far as I've seen in the docs,
reaching this just drops it into fullsynch mode. How does fullsynch mode
know to apply a failsafe? Is there a property for that?
