Description

At times the deployment fails with a 'retryable error' - or because of some other transient issue. In these instances, the user should be able to issue a /retry command against the operation for it to be re-issued and attempted again.

TBD whether this would:

  • Update the existing operation and re-issue the service bus message, OR
  • Append a history item to the operation so there's a trace of updates, OR
  • Create a new operation item and return that from the retry endpoint

Research direction

Start by tracing the operation handling and the proposed retry endpoint, then inspect where the service bus message is issued. Resolve whether retry updates the existing operation, appends history, or creates a new operation before defining completion criteria.
