Retry Database Connection

Retry Database Connection
Retry Database ConnectionThis Workflow Snippet shows how to try connecting to a database multiple times using a try catch block and a loop. The loop stops either: - when the retry count reaches the maximum defined at the Counting Loop Start node OR - when a successful DB connection is established To simulate the behaviour of unsuccessful retries, configure the Counting Loop Start node with number of loops <= 3.The Fail Workflow Component at the end is important ONLY for execution on a KNIME Server. It detects if a successful connection has beenestablished during the retries and throws an error marking the overall workflow execution unsuccessful.
