The minimum value is 1, meaning try only once. (Note that mod_proxy default is also 1: no retry) {noformat} Balancer is not behaving that way. Minimum that one can set is 0 that means "no retry" and overall the number there means how many times balancer should failover that request to another worker not how many (max)times balancer should sent the request to the workers (even the first one counts) as documentation stands. *Behave* ||MaxAttempts||Undertow||Httpd||Documentation | -1| (1) One retry | (1)One retry| Default of 1 should be used and therefore no retry | 0| (1) One retry | (0)No retry| Default of 1 should be used and therefore no retry | 1| (1) One retry | (1) One retry| No retry | 2| (2) Two retries| (2) Two retries | One retry \(x\) - x represents amount of retries based on balancer behave -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.2.3#72005)
