User actions
The SMD to STC workflow creates user actions for these scenarios:
The SMD space is in an earlier or same version as the STC space
If the SMD is in an earlier or the same version as STC, the user and receives a notification and must select from these options to continue:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Proceed running | Selecting this option directs the IPA to disregard the version and proceed to run the workflow |
| End Process | Selecting this option directs the IPA to skip remaining steps and end the IPA flow |
Another upgrade process is running
A value of “In Progress” for the IPA_UpgradeVariable means that another process is running and a new process does not run.
For scenarios where the IPA flow was canceled by the user, processing failed to complete, or an error occurred, a notification is sent to the user and must select from these options to continue:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Proceed running |
Selecting this option directs the IPA to bypass this checkpoint and proceed to run the workflow. |
| End Process | Selecting this option directs the IPA to skip remaining steps and end the IPA flow |
Birst workflow for the copyspace, repoint connection, or repoint packages run failed after maximum retries
If the Birst workflow for the copyspace, repoint connection, or repoint packages encounters an error, the IPA workflow initiates a rerun of the Birst workflows from the failed step. If the rerun continues to fail after the maximum retry count of 4, a notification is sent to the user. The user must select from these options to continue:
