Gotchas
• Transactional ItemReader and skip/retry
– readerIsTransactionalQueue()
• Listeners and transactions
– @Transactional(propagation=Propagation.REQUIRES_NEW)
• ExitStatus.equals() vs ExitStatus.compareTo()
• Restart vs relaunch
– Restart = start the same JobIntance again
– Relaunch = new JobInstance
• Must not use the same (identifying) job parameters
