👋 is there any way to configure a higher default for a task's

retries

parameter? we'd like to modify an internal method to use

FlyteRecoverableException

but we need a way to bump the default

retries

on all tasks. I noticed a default-max-attempts parameter on flyte propeller, but not entirely sure if this translates to task's

retries

parameter

ah well, we want to basically trigger a system retry within python code within one of our system libraries, but from this code (if I'm interpreting it right), it seems like any exception within the code is treated as a user error

I believe I saw a notification on this thread about using some simplified retry mechanism, which does sound pretty much like what we want but I don't see the message anymore, is there anything like this? 👀

ah yes I believe it's the simplified-retry-behavior? in that case, if you don't specify

retries

in a task, would the retry budget be 3, i.e. the current system error budget?

@freezing-airport-6809 do you have an update here? We would like to have all user retries set to 2 for example for all flyte tasks temporarily

Aah you want to trigger a system retry - recommended to use connector - but you can raise a system error
