By default, each task runs for a maximum of 10 minutes: you can change this to a shorter time or a longer time up to 1 hour, by changing the task timeout setting as described in this page. There is no explicit timeout on a job execution: when all tasks are done, the job execution is done.
In the case of retries, the timeout setting applies to each attempt of a task. If the task attempt does not complete within this time, it will be stopped.
The units specify a duration; for example, 10m5s
is ten minutes
and five seconds. If you don't specify a unit, seconds are assumed as the unit.
For example, the value 10
is 10 seconds.
