> GH-536: RFE: Allow Workflows To be Automatically Retried
> --------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: OOZIE-337
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OOZIE-337
> Project: Oozie
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Hadoop QA
>
> Certain work-flows fail most often due to transient failures that can be
> worked around simply by retrying after some time.
> Allow a work-flow (or an action in a work-flow) to indicate that it's OK for
> the work-flow to be retried a certain number of times with a certain amount
> of time between the retries before actually declaring it a failure. (The
> intervals between retries could be fixed or some form of an increasing
> sequence generated by an exponential back-off algorithm.)
> If issue #535 were to be fixed, developers will at least have a work-around
> for implementing this feature on their own.
