Google Cloud Scheduler: Retry behavior changed (auto-retrying by itself infinitely now)

[Nik]

Hi all. 

Today one of my Google Cloud Scheduler tasks that was timing out began retrying by itself every minute for hours (very unexpected). According to the logs this same task has timed out every Monday for quite a while without ever retrying before (as expected).

The task was added via the GCP website GUI which does not allow for retry settings (and doesn't even mention retries). I don't see any notifications about changes or updates around this.

Anyone else seeing this behavior or have any insight?

Hello,

The Cloud Scheduler Engineering Team is aware of this issue. The fix should be rolled out by end of next week.
