Error handling workflow templates

Error handling workflow templates are crucial in Data Mover, facilitating the management of errors during contract execution.

These templates trigger automatically when a workflow template tied to a contract encounters an error.

Two distinct error workflow templates are available for selection in the Actions section of input, mediation and output contracts:

  • ehwft_logAllVariables: this template captures and logs all error-related variables from the parent instance, storing detailed logs in the messages.log file for future analysis and troubleshooting.

  • ehwft_notifyError: this template collects all variables from the failed parent instance. Instead of logging the error, it sends a prompt notification via the Notification Channel to inform relevant parties.

The Error workflow template is selected when defining the Action of any type of contract following these steps:

  1. In the Error Handling pane, enable the Enable Workflow error handling toggle button.

  2. Select ehwft_logAllVariables or ehwft_notifyError according to your needs.

Depending on the selected template and applied configuration, detailed logs will be listed in Monitoring Logs and in the messages.log file of the STENG or sent as a notification to the relevant parties.
