Ajay Yadava commented on FALCON-1363:
-------------------------------------
{code}
+Retry policy defines how the workflow failures should be handled. Two retry
policies are defined: periodic and exp-periodic(exponential backoff). Depending
on the delay and number of attempts, the workflow is re-tried after specific
intervals.
{code}
Should be exp-backoff instead of exp-periodic.
There are 3 retry policies and not two. periodic/ exp-backoff and final.
{code}
<xs:documentation>Retry defines how to handle workflow failures. Policy type -
periodic, exponential
+ backoff along with the delay define how frequently the
workflow should be re-tried. Number of
+ attempts define how many times to re-try the failures.
</xs:documentation>
{code}
Policy type (periodic/exp-backoff/final) ...
We should also add documentation to explain the various policies and how they
work with example. However, that can be tackled in a separate JIRA, this adds
value on it's own.
