6.11 Redoing tasks

You can redo tasks by re-executing, or retrying them. Each operation is described as follows:

• Re-execution

  You can re-execute stopped tasks (tasks enter in Completed, Failed, and Canceled status) by specifying a property value and another task ID.

• Retry

  You can retry failed tasks. Use the same property value, and the same task ID to retry a task. Tasks are retried when tasks failed due to failures caused by inadequate environment, including temporary network disconnection.

  You can retry tasks by performing either of the following methods:

  • Retrying a task from a failed step

  • Retrying a task from the step after the failed one

Important note

Identify and resolve the causes of a failure for the applicable step from the execution status and the result of each step in a task, and task log information before retrying tasks.

The subsequent subsections describe how to re-execute, and retry tasks.
