Is there a way to have an action that fails repeat itself one time? We are 
working with a particular pig script that occasionally fails with what appears 
to be a transient error. At least, when we re-run the script it works. We are 
working this into a workflow and are looking for a way to have it re-try a 
failed action once.

First instinct is to use a decision node, but I don't know how to track the 
state to ensure it only retries once. Second idea was to just implement the 
action twice, and have <error to="second action">, <ok to="third action">.

Is there a best practice around this type of thing?

thanks,
Paul
