Specifying retry parameters for Siebel activities

Specifying the Retry parameters is one of the tasks you must complete to configure a Siebel activity.

The Siebel connector uses a single login session for all connections to a Siebel endpoint. If a session expires, the connector automatically establishes a new session. The Siebel connector does not count the initial attempt to reacquiring the session as a retry attempt. The Siebel connector assumes the typical connector retry behavior after the initial attempt to reacquire a session fails.

For more information about the configuration tasks in the Checklist, see the help topic for the specific Siebel activity.

Procedure

  1. In the Checklist, select Retry. The Retry panel opens.
  2. Configure the retry options for connecting to a Siebel instance.
    The following table describes the retry options for connecting to a Siebel instance:
    Retry Fields Description
    Wait __ second(s) between each retry. Specifies the number of seconds that the Integration Appliance waits before trying to establish a connection to the Siebel instance. By default, this parameter is set to 30 seconds.
    Try to connect __ times before failing. Specifies the maximum number of times that the Integration Appliance attempts to establish a connection to the Siebel instance before issuing an error and stopping the processing of the current orchestration job. By default, this parameter is set to 5 attempts.
