WDL: how to resume a failed workflow ? (caching) Former User of DNAx Community_46 22 February 2023 00:00 3 comments Hi all, I'm now able to run a basic WDL workflow with the UK biobank data. I now wonder how avoid re-running the whole workflow is anything fails (equivalent of "-resume" in nextflow (https://www.nextflow.io/blog/2019/demystifying-nextflow-resume.html , cromwell https://cromwell.readthedocs.io/en/stable/Configuring/#call-caching , etc .... ) I cannot find this feature in the documentation . Do you have any pointer ?

Hi Pierre,
Maybe something like `reuse` is what you're looking for: https://documentation.dnanexus.com/user/running-apps-and-workflows/job-reuse
Looks like you may be able to add it as a parameter when you call `dx run`: https://github.com/dnanexus/dxCompiler/blob/develop/doc/ExpertOptions.md#job-reuse
@Alexandra Lee? thank you Alexandra .
So as far as I understand "By default, job results are reused" but "A license is required to access the Smart Reuse feature. "
