Hi guys,
Need an favour ! In my job i try for an ftp step , if the step fails the job appends , i would like an way so that i can try for that FTP step for three times , if after three times job step fails , then we job can append , during this times i would like to avoid to avoid all the previous step

A) Split the FTP into it's own step. That way you do not have to worry about restarts and any downstream jobs can carry on.
B) Assuming this is a production job, update the run documentation to say 'try up to 3 times before calling support'
