Error Handling

Hi
Has anyone got an example of error handling that will allow me to only send an email alert when the job fails 3 times in a row?
We are working with a provider that has an SFTP server and it seems that on occasion it gets a bit flakey so I am getting a lot of alerts for a period and then it resolves itself.
Cheers in advance
David

You can use
global variable some counter. For example variable named
GlobalCounter with initial value 1
And use it in error handler as in my example
Code: Select all

Do not forget create global variable
GlobalCounter with value 1.
Next you can try this example. It shows a message only at 3-d running.
