“Retry with More Memory” feature for Terra workflow

Feature Requests
1

**Wondering why the “Retry with More Memory” feature is “Disabled“ for the Terra workfow “1-WholeGenomeGermlineSingleSample”.

So should we pre-set the memory by setting the “memory_multiplier“ values?**

**Thanks in advance for any insights!

Hi @yxhan ,

The “Retry with More Memory” feature has to be configured inside the WDL workflow. This might be a useful resource for setting the parameter values: https://support.terra.bio/hc/en-us/articles/4403215299355-Out-of-Memory-Retry

Please let us know if this helps!

Hi Ava @avahoffman ,

Thanks for the information.

I have cloned the workspace: Workspaceswarp-pipelines/Whole-Genome-Analysis-Pipeline and am working on the first workflow: 1-WholeGenomeGermlineSingleSample. The source is from Dockstore Source: github.com/broadinstitute/warp/WholeGenomeGermlineSingleSample:WholeGenomeGermlineSingleSample_v3.3.4

So this one can not be modified, in particular, the memory or retry feature, according to https://support.terra.bio/hc/en-us/articles/8888504224283-How-to-set-up-a-WDL-on-Github-Dockstore, correct?

Thanks

Hi @yxhan ,

Taking a quick look at the WDL source on Dockstore, I don’t see an option for retries. You might be able to copy/clone and modify the workflow to accommodate retries. You might also reach out to the maintainers to see if this is possible.

Note that this workflow imports other workflows. You might also explore those to see if they have this option.

Best,

Ava
