[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFLY-4427) Step status of the failed step by <fail> element becomes COMPLETED.

[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-4427?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.... ] Takashi Nishigaya edited comment on WFLY-4427 at 3/13/15 9:21 PM: ------------------------------------------------------------------ Thank you, Cheng. I am considering the restarting use cases of using allow-start-if-complete attribute: # All of the steps defined with allow-start-if-complete="false" (default) #* This type of job cannot be restarted. This is almost the same meaning as restartable="false". # All of the steps defined with allow-start-if-complete="true" #* This type of job is designed to re-execute all of the steps of the failed job. This is the same as newly invoking start(), instead of restart(). # Mixed with steps with allow-start-if-complete="true" and allow-start-if-complete="false" #* In this type of job, restarting the failed job means compensation purpose. Restart() will only re-execute all of the steps with allow-start-if-complete="true" and the rest of the steps unexecuted previously. It is used only when a set of the job recovery steps is determined at design time. When designing the job definitions, if we want to restart the failed job from the point of the step just failed previously, we cannot use the fail-by-exit-status strategy. In such case, we should use fail-by-throwing-a-exception strategy. was (Author: nishigaya): Thank you, Cheng.
