Configuring Task Settings

Configure the settings for the delivery tasks used with the Deliver Document By processing action and the reliable execution tasks used with the Execute a Service processing action.

2. The reliable task manager thread becomes idle when all tasks have completed or failed or are in the wait period between attempts. Add or edit the tn.task.sweepTime property to specify the number of seconds the thread should remain idle before checking for delivery or service execution tasks that failed on their last attempt and that have not yet reached their retry limit.

Note:

The thread wakes up immediately when a new task arrives.

Type of task	Wait between retries governed by…
Delivery	The Wait between retries value in the receiving partner's profile.
Service execution	The tn.task.ttw property.

However, Trading Networks could wait as long as the tn.task.sweepTime. If the task manager thread is idle when the wait between retries expires, the task manager thread will not wake up to process the task until the tn.task.sweepTime expires.

3. Add or edit the properties below to configure the number of times Trading Networks is to try to execute services that use reliable execution and how long Trading Networks is to wait between attempts to re-execute a service that failed.

Property	Setting
tn.task.maxRetries	Number of times to try to re-execute a service. Specify an integer.
tn.task.ttw	Number of milliseconds to wait before making the first attempt to re-execute a service that has failed.
tn.task.retryFactor	Factor to use to determine how long to wait before making subsequent attempts to re-execute the service. Trading Networks calculates the time to wait by multiplying the last wait time by this factor. Specify a whole number greater than zero.

4. By default, Trading Networks uses the Administrator user account to invoke services. Add or edit the property to indicate the user account to use when invoking the service.

5. If you want to be notified when a task fails, add or set the tn.task.notifyFailure property to true. Trading Networks will publish an IS document with the format defined by the wm.tn.rec:TaskFailure IS document type.

Note:

You can create an Integration Server trigger that subscribes to documents of this IS document type. For instructions, see the Publish-Subscribe Developer’s Guide.
