Error management

Errors and failures can result when a document is not exported correctly from the source repository to the Federator database or when a document is not imported correctly from the Federator database into Content Platform Engine.

Documents that generate errors are automatically tried again. If the error persists, the document federation process is repeated up to a specified maximum number of times. You can selectively process individual errors without starting a full federation. You also have the option of deleting errors or converting them into failures.

A document processing failure is never tried again. However, you can change a document processing state from a failed status to an error status to cause the document to be processed in the next federation cycle. You can also delete failures.

Accessing error management from the Rule Listing section

Error processing from the Rule Listing section retries all export or import errors for all selected errors. A partial federation is performed that excludes the query phase of processing. This option is available only if the rule is in the Federated or Aborted state, enabled, and if there is at least one export or import error.

Accessing error management from the Export or Import Errors Listing

From the Export and Import error list you can take the following actions if the rule is in a Federated or Aborted state:

Delete
Delete the selected errors and failures. The selected errors and failures are removed from the database and cannot be recovered.
Delete All
Delete all errors and failures. All errors and failures are removed from the database and cannot be recovered.
Ignore
Ignore selected errors by converting them into failures. The retry count of the selected errors is set to the maximum number of retries allowed.
Ignore All
Ignore all errors by converting them into failures. The retry count of all errors is set to the maximum number of retries allowed.
Reset
Reset selected failures by converting them back into errors. The retry count of the selected errors is reset to 0.
Reset All
Reset all failures by converting them back into errors. The retry count of all errors is reset to 0.
Retry
Try the selected export or import errors again. A partial federation is performed meaning that the query phase is skipped and only errors are processed.
