Stop Service Provision Attempts After x Failures

    Details

    • Type: New Feature
    • Status: Open
    • Priority: Major
    • Resolution: Unresolved

      Description

      Currently services that fail provisioning may continue to attempt provisioning every time the cron runs, indefinitely.

      A setting should be added "Halt Automatic Provision After Attempts" which will stop provision attempts on a service after X attempts have failed. The setting should be a drop down containing

      • Never
      • 1
      • 2
      • ...
      • 30

      In order to track number of failed attempts we should add a new status to the log_services table called provision_failed. Make sure that adding this status does not mess up any of the current suspension/unsuspension behavior that depends on this log.

      In addition, a new email template service_provision_halted should be created with the name Service Provisioning Halted and the subject Automatic Provisioning Halted for Service -

      {service.name}

      This email should be sent to subscribed admins when provisioning is halted on a service. This email should appear under the "Email Subscription Notices" section on the My Info and Staff Group pages.

      For additional visibility, we may want to add a note to the clients dashboard, similar the the due invoices notice, that tells them which services, if any, have halted provisioning.

          We also may want to do this sort of thing for suspension/unsuspension/cancellation and not just for service creation

          If we do this task it would make at least part of CORE-901 unnecessary

          Description Sometimes services fail to provision, and will continue to do so until something is changed manually. To prevent attempts to provision these every 5 minutes until forever, we should add a setting "Stop Automatic Provisions After Attempts" or some such thing. Then we add a drop down of how many attempts to make before suspending automatic provisions for a service. Probably 1-30 or no limit.

          In order to do this we will either need to create a new log table or adapt the current log_services table to support service provision failures.

          We also need to make sure that users know that provisioning has been suspended. Maybe an email to the admin? Another log page? A notice message on the user profile?

          Instead of using log_services we should generalize service_invoices

          This task will work similar to the service renewal queue. We'll rename Tools > Renewal Queue, so that it works for both new and renewing services, and we will show whether it's a new or renewing service in the queue.
