Retry a cluster

When stack provisioning or cluster creation fails, use the retry option to resume the process from the last failed step.

Required role: The DataHubAdmin or Owner roles at the scope of Cloudera Data Hub allow you to manage the Cloudera Data Hub cluster. Note that EnvironmentAdmin and Owner of the environment can also manage Cloudera Data Hub clusters.

Only failed stack or cluster creations can be retried. A retry can be initiated any number of times on a failed creation process.

In some cases the cause of a failed stack provisioning or cluster creation can be eliminated by simply retrying the process. For example, in case of a temporary network outage, a retry should be successful. In other cases, a manual modification is required before a retry can succeed. For example, if you are using a custom image but some configuration is missing, causing the process to fail, you must log in to the machine and fix the issue; Only after that you can retry the process.

  1. Log in to the Cloudera web interface.
  2. Navigate to the Cloudera Management Console > Data Hub Clusters.
  3. Browse to cluster details.
  4. Click Actions and select Retry.
  5. Click Yes to confirm. The operation continues from the last failed step.
