Closed as program error.
Error description
When an undercover agent (UCA) fails, a RetryOnHold task is created even if an automatic retry might succeed and no automatic retries occur. In versions of IBM Business Process Manager (BPM) earlier than V8.5.6, failed UCAs were retried automatically up to five times. Only when all retrials fail, the UCA's event manager task should be converted into a ReplayOnHold task so that the UCA can be tried again later.
