Retry in oozie through hue

[#1]

Hi,

I have some schedulers in OOZIE through hue and some of them some times fail. However when I run them manually after, they end successfully. Is there any way to put retry policy in my WFs?

Here is the error that I am taking:

Exit code of the Shell command 1

Hello @drgenious 

Please use the below line to retry the workflow.

<action name="a" retry-max="2" retry-interval="1">

Refer : https://oozie.apache.org/docs/3.3.0/WorkflowFunctionalSpec.html#a18_User-Retry_for_Workflow_Actions_...

Let me know if it helps.

Hi @balajip ,

Where can I add this in oozie ui(hue)?

@drgenious

In hue -> issue workflow -> click gear icon -> retry interval 

Let me know if you have any concerns.
