Netmond V2. Retries parameter


Eventually, polling method may fail for some reason - for example, remote host may delay reply more then Timeout. In this case Netmond may try to execute this method again. The Retries parameter defines the maximal number of repetitions for each polling method during the same polling cycle (object's poling list execution). So, method maximal execution time is a multiplication of Timeout and Retries.
Parameter can be used multiple times in Netmond configuration file - in global level context or inside objects and subobjects declarations.

In global context this parameter set DEFAULT retries number. Any object or subobject having polling methods defined can have individual Retries parameter too.
