Hi. I have a master pkg that contains a large number of containers. Many of these containers call multiple sub packages which of course contain a number of components.
I see that max error count is a setting on a variety of things including pkgs, containers and components. So I assume if two components in the same sub pkg experience an error, and the sub pkg's max error count is 2, it will abort. But not if the max is 3. Or not if only one error is encountered.
Can I also assume that those 2 errrs roll up as max error counts to the container that called the sub pkg? And if that exceeeds or equals the container's max, I'll abort?
Can I also assume they'll roll up to the master pkg and count towards it's max?
I should mention that the reason I'm asking is that we get cryptographic errors that mean nothing after our variables etc finally map to some of our flat file attributes. And some of them dont even show a source in the ssis log which makes me wonder if they count toward any of the components' maxerrorcounts.
But unfortunately some (perhaps ones with sources) are counting toward our max error count at what looks like more than 1 level in the log. So I dont yet understand.
I may be looking at delay validation next but have always been resistent to using it. And I'm not sure if it would help here. And not sure if it can be set once at a pkg level for all containers and components contained in that pkg.
