Description
Use RETRYERR
to retry errors encountered while outputting records. For example:
Extracted data is output to another node, and the network experiences a temporary problem. Rather than ending abnormally, you could specify a periodic retry of specific network-related errors numbers (such as 250).
A file in the trail fills up prematurely (error 45). Messages indicating the problem alert an operator to increase MAXEXTENTS
on the file, after which processing would resume automatically.
Syntax
RETRYERR {error_num | DEFAULT | EXPAND} [, MAXRETRIES retries] [, DELAY seconds]
error_num
Retries a particular error number.
DEFAULT
Retries Guardian errors not specifically dealt with in other RETRYERR
entries.
EXPAND
Retries EXPAND
-related errors. This does not cover TCP/IP-related problems.
MAXRETRIES
retries
The number of retries before the process ends abnormally (default is 10). Set retries
to zero to turn off retries for specific errors when a DEFAULT
has been specified.
DELAY
seconds
The number of seconds before the next retry (default is 20).
Example
The following example retries Error 45 every 30 seconds a maximum of 10 times, and retries Expand errors every minute for an hour.
RETRYERR 45, DELAY 30, MAXRETRIES 10 RETRYERR EXPAND, DELAY 60, MAXRETRIES 60
