             Summary: Emit metrics that distinguish transient and permanent distribution failures
                 Key: SLING-11181
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-11181
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Content Distribution
            Reporter: José Correia


h3. Context


Currently, our error metrics don't distinguish between distribution failures that are permanent and will fail even if retried, or failures that succeed after being retried.
We want to improve this in order to be able to differentiate both scenarios.

 
h3. Solution

 

Failure metric should be labeled by:
 * {{Transient failure}}
 * {{Permanent failure}}

 
h3. Proposed approach

 

We can distinguish both these scenarios by using the following rationale:
 * Transient failures happen whenever a package is distributed successfully but had more than 1 attempt at being distributed: {{retries > 0}}
