Title: [Reviewer Andy] Create SAS message queue in closed state

Andy

This is the problem you were seeing. Basically if a node never manages to connect to SAS the message queue is left open so the retry sleep keeps getting interrupted by messages going on the queue.

I've reproduced the problem on my test system and tested the fix - I now see nice evenly spaced 10 second retries.
