hello,  
for some reason the loadbalancer keeps on removing client as it shows in the below log

| 2022-06-16 | 07:08:46 | EEST | comment | server | INFO | 200 | - | loadBalancer: Initializing new client: DST1 | - | - | - | 110308.682 | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - |

what is the cause of such behavior? and is it possible to stop the expire timeout?

regards,
