Determines the amount of time (in seconds) to wait between attempts made to open a catalog file that has produced an error
when the initial attempt to open it was made.
Syntax:
ES_CAT_RETRY_WAIT=n
Parameters:
- n
- The number of seconds to wait between attempts made to open a catalog file.
Properties:
| Default:
|
ES_CAT_RETRY_WAIT=0
|
Comments:
Use this variable in conjunction with the ES_CAT_RETRY_COUNT variable, which determines how many attempts to make to open a catalog file that initially failed to open.
Take care when setting these variables as they could impact the time taken to report an error and therefore will delay processing of a job whilst the checks take place. These variables can be useful if you experience file access problems (for example, network connection drop-outs) that only last a second or two, so that it gives the system a chance to recover, before aborting.
