Changing the retry limits for data quality rules

If the default retry limits for data quality rules do not meet your needs, you can change them.

About this task

For example, you might want to increase the retry limit if you regularly run data quality rules against data sources with connections that are assigned to data source definitions with a limit on active connections. In such cases, the data quality rules service retries to access such connections by using the default retry values of 5 retries at 5 second intervals, but it can still happen that such connections do not become available within that time frame (25 seconds).

Procedure

To change the retry limits for data quality rules:

  1. Log in to the cluster as a user with the permission to run oc commands.
  2. Change the limits by setting these environment variable:
    • To adjust the retry interval, set the EXTERNAL_CALL_RETRY_INTERVAL_MS variable.
    • To adjust the number of retries, set the MAX_EXTERNAL_CALL_RETRIES variable.
