Task Recovery Strategies

The task recovery strategy determines whether the Data Integration Service reruns or skips a task that is interrupted or that encounters an error. Verify the recovery strategy for any Mapping task in the workflow.

A task can have one of the following recovery strategies:

Restart: When a task with a restart recovery strategy is interrupted or encounters a recoverable error, the Data Integration Service cancels the task and the workflow. The Data Integration Service restarts the task when the workflow recovers. When a task with a restart recovery strategy encounters a nonrecoverable error, the Data Integration Service aborts the task and the workflow.; When you enable recovery on a workflow, all tasks use a restart recovery strategy by default.; Define a restart strategy for any Mapping task that writes data for a Human task.
Skip: When a task with a skip recovery strategy encounters a recoverable error or a nonrecoverable error, the Data Integration Service skips the task. The Data Integration Service runs the next stage in the workflow. If the workflow does not encounter an error or an interruption, the workflow completes successfully.; If the workflow is not enabled for recovery, the Data Integration Service skips any task that encounters a task error.
