How do Retries work with Dependent Flows?  I added retries to the task from the parent flow, but they don't seem to be firing?

Does the subflow not fire? Are you trying to fire another subflow?

I'm trying to get the subflow to retry if it fails (specifically, if the EC2 container doesn't start - occasionally get the error `'reason': 'RESOURCE:MEMORY')`

Ah ok so this can’t be done easily. See <https://discourse.prefect.io/t/how-do-i-restart-a-child-flow-run-in-a-flow-of-flows/634|this> for an explanation. Basically the idempotency will not fire off another run

Sub-flow retries are being worked on though for 2.0

Looks like it could work if I used an Idempotency Key and used script-based storage?

How do you use Script-based Storage with S3 storage?

Just use `stored_as_script=True` and point to a `local_script_path` to upload. Use them in tandem.

<@U01QEJ9PP53> How does the path work?  So let's say my CI/CD pipeline runs `prefect register &lt;path&gt;` - do I put `&lt;path&gt;/&lt;script&gt;.py`?  Or just `&lt;script&gt;.py`?

Huzzah!  btw, needed to use the absolute path

Sweet, now let's see if the Idempotency key stuff works
