Then the job handler will retry to a maximum of 3 times.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Best regards,</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 25 Nov 2011 13:16:31 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/best-practice-for-retry-on-fail/m-p/64812#M40951 trademak 2011-11-25T13:16:31Z Re: Best practice for retry on fail https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/best-practice-for-retry-on-fail/m-p/64813#M40952 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>On asynchronous execution the job is executed immediately one after another, so if the soap service is offline even for a few seconds, the job will fail.</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Therefore I think an error handling logic will be the better choice…</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Mon, 28 Nov 2011 10:00:17 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/best-practice-for-retry-on-fail/m-p/64813#M40952 mahmut 2011-11-28T10:00:17Z
