    Description

      If you start the statestored and the other services at the same time, there is a race between the statestore starting and the other services trying to register with it. If the other services "win" the race, they abort startup because they can't register with the statestore.

      The log looks like.

      │ Statestore subscriber did not start up.                                                           
      

      Most management systems will automatically restart failed processes, so typically the impalads will come back up and find the statestore, but the crash loop is unnecessary.

      I propose that the services should retry for a while before giving up (we still want the services to fail when there genuinely isn't a statestore available).
