Assembly: Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo (in microsoft.sqlserver.smo.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Property RetryInterval As Integer
public int RetryInterval { get; set; }
public:
property int RetryInterval {
    int get ();
    void set (int value);
}
/** @property */
public int get_RetryInterval ()

public void set_RetryInterval (int value)
public function get RetryInterval () : int

public function set RetryInterval (value : int)

Property Value

An Int32 value that specifies the number of minutes to wait before retrying a failed job step.

Remarks

TheRetryInterval property is evaluated only for those job steps flagged for retry. Set the RetryAttempts property to force SQL Server Agent to attempt more than a single execution of a job step.

When the RetryInterval property is zero (default), SQL Server Agent immediately executes a job step an additional time when the step has been flagged for retry and fails completion.

This namespace, class, or member is supported only in version 2.0 of the Microsoft .NET Framework.
