Documentation

Definition

Maximum number of nodes that can be processed at runtime before the workflow runtime system assumes an endless loop and cancels the current workflow.

The number of nodes processed so far is counted for each workflow execution (instance).

The presetting for this value is 10000.

If the maximum number is reached, the system (workflow manager) stops the processing and changes the status of the workflow to error. If the value is set too low in a specific case, the workflow system adminstrator can increase it and then continue the interrupted workflow without data loss (restart after error).
