JobStep.RetryInterval Property

Gets or sets the number of minutes that Microsoft SQL Server Agent waits before trying to execute a job step that has previously failed.

Namespace:  Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Agent
Assembly:  Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo (in Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
<SfcPropertyAttribute(SfcPropertyFlags.Standalone)> _
Public Property RetryInterval As Integer 
    Get 
    Set
'Usage
Dim instance As JobStep 
Dim value As Integer 

value = instance.RetryInterval

instance.RetryInterval = value
[SfcPropertyAttribute(SfcPropertyFlags.Standalone)]
public int RetryInterval { get; set; }
[SfcPropertyAttribute(SfcPropertyFlags::Standalone)]
public:
property int RetryInterval {
    int get ();
    void set (int value);
}
[<SfcPropertyAttribute(SfcPropertyFlags.Standalone)>]
member RetryInterval : int with get, set
function get RetryInterval () : int 
function set RetryInterval (value : int)

Property Value

Type: System.Int32
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.
