Retry Attempts
Number of retry attempts specifies how many times the Data Factory service will attempt to re-run the Databricks Notebook Activity in case of failure.
The value is applied as the retry count on the Databricks Notebook and Databricks Job activities in the generated Azure Data Factory pipelines. A blank value is treated as 0, meaning a failed activity is not re-run.
When to Change This Setting
Keep the default 0 during development so failures surface immediately. Increase it for scheduled environments where transient conditions (such as cluster startup issues) are expected to succeed on a re-run; pair it with a Retry Interval that gives the condition time to clear.
