Reprocessing Configuration

Overview

The Reprocessing screen allows users with the Fynapse System Administrator role to define when and how often automatic reprocessing of failed events should be triggered. Additionally, the screen allows setting a maximum number of reprocessing retries that takes into account both automatic and manual reprocessing runs.

Reprocessing Screen

The Reprocessing screen comprises the following elements:

• The Edit button - click it to configure settings for automatic reprocessing
• The Scheduler type panel - use this panel to decide if automatic reprocessing will be run on specific dates, on a basis of a defined frequency, or it should be disabled.
  If you choose Disabled, then the automatic reprocessing will be disabled. To reprocess failed data, users will have to do it manually using the Download Errors screen.

• The time settings panel - use it to define frequency details. While configuring the schedule, you need to remember that time interval between following reprocessing repetitions must be at least 180 minutes. If you configure shorter time interval, then you will not be able to save this configuration.
  • Frequency - if you choose this option, then you need to define at least one configuration in Primary frequency. This panel comprises of:
    • Primary frequency:
      • The Repeat list - use it to select how often automatic reprocessing must be triggered. You can select a particular option only once.
      • Time settings - use it to set when exactly automatic reprocessing must be triggered. The type of time setting depends on the option you select from the Repeat list.
      • The Add button - click it to add another time setting (it denotes another repetition of reprocessing within a given frequency)
      • The trash bin icon - click it to delete a particular setting row
      • The Add additional frequency button - use it to add another frequency setting
  • Specific dates - if you choose this option, then you need to define at least one date and time. To add another specific date (it denotes another repetition of reprocessing), click the Add button. Note that each specific date can be used only once. To delete the specific date, click the trash bin icon.
  • The Limit panel - use this panel to set a maximum number of reprocessing retries for failed events. The setting takes into account both automatic and manual reprocessing runs. However, if the scheduler type is set to Disabled, then the limit is set only for manual reprocessing. Once the limit for a failed event is reached, and the cause of its failure is not identified, it stays in the failed status permanently and is not reprocessed anymore.
    The default number of retries is set to 30. However, we recommend setting the limit to a lower one to enable system operators to remove a cause of an error.

• The action buttons:
  • The Save button - click it to save the settings. While configuring the schedule, you need to remember that time interval between following reprocessing repetitions must be at least 180 minutes. If you configure shorter time interval, then you will not be able to save this configuration.
  • The Cancel button - click it to discard your changes
