[jira] [Created] (OOZIE-337) GH-536: RFE: Allow Workflows To be Automatically Retried

GH-536: RFE: Allow Workflows To be Automatically Retried
--------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: OOZIE-337
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OOZIE-337
             Project: Oozie
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Hadoop QA


Certain work-flows fail most often due to transient failures that can be worked around simply by retrying after some time.

Allow a work-flow (or an action in a work-flow) to indicate that it's OK for the work-flow to be retried a certain number of times with a certain amount of time between the retries before actually declaring it a failure. (The intervals between retries could be fixed or some form of an increasing sequence generated by an exponential back-off algorithm.)

If issue #535 were to be fixed, developers will at least have a work-around for implementing this feature on their own.
