Specifies how many times a job queue task should be rerun after a job queue fails to run. This is useful for situations in which a task might be unresponsive. For example, a task might be unresponsive because it depends on an external resource that is not always available.

By default, the value is set to 0 (zero), which means that the number of attempts is infinite.

If a job queue entry has a timeout setting that is specified in the Timeout (sec.) field, and it times out, the timeout setting overrides the configuration in the Maximum No. of Attempts to Run field. The job queue entry does not continue to attempt to run.
