Retry Limits Using REST API

On This Page


Overview

When issues occur during transfer, DryvIQ will categorize the issues based on the error and flag for manual remediation. This allows you to easily identify areas for review. DryvIQ will retry an item three times by default. You can change the retry limit for different error messages.

Parameters

ParameterDescriptionRequired
nameThe name of the categoryRequired
descriptionAn optional description for the categoryOptional
filter

The criteria used to match an item to the category. There are two kinds:

  • Context metadata: Includes audit information about what caused the item to fail to transfer have a warning during transfer.
  • Pattern: includes match by item name/path pattern (e.g. *.txt)
Required
action

This identifies the action to take. There are three option:

  • retry: Retry the item transfer. The max_retry defines the number of times the item is retried before it is ignored.
  • ignore: Ignore the item. This places it in manual remediation.
  • halt: Halt the job; prevent the job from subsequent executions
Required
max_retryThe number of retries to attempt before the item is ignored. The default value is 3Optional
