Pegasystems Exam PEGACPLSA88V1 Topic 1 Question 16 Discussion

Max Attempts: The maximum number of retry attempts set is 4.

Initial Delay: The initial delay before the first retry attempt is 2 minutes.

Delay Factor: The delay factor is set to 2, which means the delay doubles with each retry.

Calculating Delays:

First attempt fails, delay before second attempt = Initial delay = 2 minutes.

Second attempt fails, delay before third attempt = Initial delay * Delay factor = 2 minutes * 2 = 4 minutes.

Third attempt fails, delay before fourth attempt = 4 minutes * Delay factor = 4 minutes * 2 = 8 minutes.

Delay Between Attempts: The question specifically asks for the delay between the second and third attempt, which is calculated as 8 minutes.
