gRPC 6 ALREADY_EXISTS vs 14 UNAVAILABLE
Both gRPC 6 (ALREADY_EXISTS) and 14 (UNAVAILABLE) belong to the gRPC Status Codes category. 6 indicates that the entity that a client attempted to create already exists. For example, a file or directory that the RPC was supposed to create already exists. Meanwhile, 14 means that the service is currently unavailable. This is most likely a transient condition, which can be corrected by retrying with a backoff.
Descrição
The entity that a client attempted to create already exists. For example, a file or directory that the RPC was supposed to create already exists.
Quando você o vê
A create operation failed because a resource with the same unique identifier or name already exists in the system.
Como corrigir
Use a different identifier, or switch to an upsert/update operation if overwriting is acceptable. Check for existing resources before creating.
Descrição
The service is currently unavailable. This is most likely a transient condition, which can be corrected by retrying with a backoff.
Quando você o vê
The server is overloaded, shutting down, or a network partition occurred. This is the most common code to retry on, as it's explicitly transient.
Como corrigir
Retry with exponential backoff. If persistent, check the server health, load balancer configuration, and network connectivity between client and server.
