Viewing task details

Access and interpret task details in webMethods B2B Integration, including status, retries, and delivery metrics to monitor and troubleshoot tasks effectively.

Procedure

  1. In webMethods B2B Integration, go to Monitoring > Tasks .
  2. Click the timestamp to view the task details.

    You can view the details of the task on the Summary tab. Also view the course of the transaction, attributes, tasks, and content of the document on the Transaction tab. The Summary tab includes the details of the task.

    Status
    Status of the task. The following list explains the various statues:
    DONE
    Delivered the document or run the integration successfully.
    Note: When you run the integration, the status changes to success.
    FAILED
    Reached the maximum retry limit without success.
    NEW
    Created a task but not yet attempted.
    PENDING
    Attempted but not successful, and retries are available.
    STOPPED
    Interrupted the task manually while in progress.
    DELIVERING
    Started scheduled delivery and delivers the document.
    HELD
    Suspended delivery for a partner. When delivery resumes, the status changes to PENDING and retries begin.
    QUEUED
    Added the delivery task to the scheduled delivery queue.
    RATE-REGULATED
    Regulated the document delivery rate based on the configured outbound channel.
    Retries
    The attempts to rerun a failed integration task. The default value is 5.
    Retry limit
    The maximum number of times webMethods B2B Integration tries to deliver the document or call an integration.

    For FA tasks, the retry limit is 3.

    Retry factor
    Determines the time interval between retries of a failed task. webMethods B2B Integration calculates the time interval by multiplying the last wait time by the retry factor. The default value is 1. The following example shows sample values for the reliable execution mode and how they affect the wait times between attempts to redeliver a document. Delivery maximum retries = 3. Wait between retries = 10000 ms. Retry factor = 2
    1. Retry attempt 1 - 10000 ms
    2. Retry attempt 2 - 20000 ms
    3. Retry attempt 3 - 40000 ms

    For FA tasks, the retry factor is 3.

    Time to wait
    The number of milliseconds webMethods B2B Integration waits before it retries the next attempt to rerun a failed task. The default value is 300 ms.

    For FA tasks, the time to wait is 1000 ms.

    Transport time
    The time (in milliseconds) taken to complete the task irrespective of the resulting status in the previous attempt.
