Description Marian Csontos 2010-09-21 14:05:44 UTC
Do not repeat real calls on error. Use a ping-like call instead (e.g. task_info) and repeat the failed call only if the ping was OK.

After few failed attempts we may suppose the problem is not temporary and incompatibility or a bug in harness and/or scheduler was found and after logging the problem continue with next calls.

This may not work 100% but still better than having jobs killed by EWD without any report and broken job.

Bulk reassignment of issues as Bill has moved to another team.

Comment 3 Martin Styk 2020-02-11 12:15:45 UTC
Beah is no longer supported by Beaker development team.
Instead of that, we are working on Restraint test harness. You can find all the features of Restraint here.

If you think your RFE should be still implemented as part of Restraint feel free to create a new BZ ticket.

In case you have any question feel free to reach out to me
Thank you,
