Error Property Files

inc_error.properties is an idiom you can adopt to configure all of the common error settings across your workflows instead of configuring on a per processor basis - which you can do if you choose.

Settings

Setting	Description
error.limits.max	number of errors allowed per interval before the service disables itself
error.limits.interval	length of time interval (15m, 1h, etc).

TEDI has a simplistic approach to error handling and retries; conceptually it works this way:

• try something
• on failure, pause before retrying
• if retries are exhausted, bail

while tries < max-tries {
    result = execute(...)

    if result != success
        random pause [0,n)

    if tries > max-tries
        bail "all attempts failed"
}
