Set retries of of import Stage workers and AdvanceStage workers to 6
About
We tend to set the Sidekiq retries of our Stage
and AdvanceStageWorker
s to 3
(although this is consistent, Github Stage workers get 5).
These workers can run for a long time, so can be more prone to things like service interruptions. We'd like them to be more resilient.
Proposal
Set the retries to 6
for Stage and AdvanceStage workers.
6 will make them more resilient to system interruptions. The exponential retry backoff will mean 6 retries will introduce nearly 20m total wait time. Any higher retry will hold up an import for too long.
