mr job retry
Re-queue a failed or cancelled download job for another attempt.
Retry only works against jobs in the failed or cancelled state;
the server rejects retry on jobs that are still active, paused, or
already completed. The existing job's ID is reused — progress, error
message, and completion times are cleared, then the worker re-runs the
original URL fetch.
Useful when a transient network error blew up the first attempt.
Persistent failures need an updated URL, which means calling
job submit fresh rather than job retry.
Usage
mr job retry <id>
Positional arguments:
<id>
Examples
Retry a specific failed job
mr job retry a1b2c3d4
Retry every failed job in the queue
mr jobs list --json | jq -r '.jobs[] | select(.status == "failed") | .id' | xargs -I {} mr job retry {}
