Consider errors returned by httpClient.Do() as network errors. This is because
the http clients returns different types of errors and it is hard to catch
all the error types.
This is necessary to avoid connection build up between servers
unexpectedly for example in a situation where 16 servers are
talking to each other and one server now allows a maximum of
15*4096 = 61440 idle connections
Will be kept in pool. Such a large pool is perhaps inefficient for
many reasons and also affects overall system resources.
This PR also reduces idleConnection timeout from 120 secs to 60 secs.
Before this commit, nodes wait indefinitely without showing any
indicate error message when a node is started with different access
and secret keys.
This PR will show '401 Unauthorized' in this case.
Calling /minio/prometheuses/metrics calls xlSets.StorageInfo() which creates a new
storage REST client and closes it. However, currently, closing does nothing
to the underlying opened http client.
This commit introduces a closing behavior by calling CloseIdleConnections
provided by http.Transport upon the initialization of this latter.
