When a recoverable error occurs, the program re-attempts to perform the failed operation. You can
set the time interval and the number of attempts. The task finishes as soon as the operation
succeeds OR the specified number of attempts is reached.
If you select the Re-attempt, if an error occurs check box, set up the Number of attempts and the
Interval between attempts. This option is enabled by default with the following settings: Number of
attempts 5, and Interval between attempts 30 seconds.
For example, with the default settings if the backup destination on the network becomes unavailable
or not accessible, the program will attempt to reach the destination every 30 seconds, but no more
than 5 times. The attempts will be stopped as soon as the connection is resumed or if the specified
number of attempts is reached.
