Enhancement: manage failed deployments

[ecanault]

Hi,

In relation with #15, it should be nice if Setup Manager could retry automatically failed items. What about adding a new boolean preference key like retryAfterFailure? The "retry" routine could be based on 2 conditions:

• retryAfterFailure set to true
• Missing .JamfSetupEnrollmentDone file

Thanks, Emmanuel Canault

Instead of a simple boolean, the following would be nice:

• retries Integer. Indicates how many retries to attempt before failing
• failureAction int/enum/string? Indicates what to do if retries has been attempted but failed. Options should include:
  • Abort - Fail the setup and leave system in a dirty half-setup state. Useful if a critical component fails to install. If in this state, we should attempt again next reboot or something like that.
  • Continue - Log and notify the user via icon, but continue setup. Useful if a non-essential app fails to install.

@Hobadee if the choice is continue... why validate at all?
