RetryPeriodOnFailure
Specifies the interval of time (in milliseconds) that a resource should remain in a failed state before the Cluster service attempts to restart it. The following table summarizes the attributes of the RetryPeriodOnFailure property.
| Attribute | Value |
|---|---|
| Data type | DWORD |
| Access | Read/write |
| Structure | CLUSPROP_DWORD |
| Minimum | RestartPeriod value |
| Maximum | 0xFFFFFFFF (no retry) |
| Default | 0x36EE80 |
Remarks
When adjusting the RetryPeriodOnFailure property:
- Intervals measured in minutes (multiples of 0xEA60) are recommended.
- Do not set the interval any lower than that specified by the RestartPeriod property.
The Cluster Service attempts to restart the resource by calling its resource DLL's Online entry point function.
Examples
The property value portion of a property list entry for RetryPeriodOnFailure can be set with the following example code:
DWORD RetryPeriodOnFailureData = ( 5 * 0xEA60 ); // 5 minutes
CLUSPROP_DWORD RetryPeriodOnFailureValue;
RetryPeriodOnFailureValue.Syntax.dw = CLUSPROP_SYNTAX_LIST_VALUE_DWORD;
RetryPeriodOnFailureValue.cbLength = sizeof(DWORD);
RetryPeriodOnFailureValue.dw = RetryPeriodOnFailureData;
