ERROR 0x0 is an unknown error ... and it's usually hard to find the cause.

So it's better to retry to fold the WU to see if the issue is related to it, or if it's caused by some random error in the code or in hardware.

If the WU fails in the same place, it's likely a bad WU. If it fails in a different place, it may be indication of a hardware related concern.
