ResponseType	Transaction response type. The available values include: ServerOtherError: All other server-side errors except described ones. ServerBusyError: Authenticated request that returned an HTTP 503 status code. ServerTimeoutError: Timed-out authenticated request that returned an HTTP 500 status code. The timeout occurred due to a server error. AuthenticationError: The request couldn't be authenticated by the server. AuthorizationError: Authenticated request that failed due to unauthorized access of data or an authorization failure. NetworkError: Authenticated request that failed due to network errors. Most commonly occurs when a client prematurely closes a connection before timeout expiration. ClientAccountBandwidthThrottlingError: The request is throttled on bandwidth for exceeding storage account scalability limits. ClientAccountRequestThrottlingError: The request is throttled on request rate for exceeding storage account scalability limits. ClientThrottlingError: Other client-side throttling error. ClientAccountBandwidthThrottlingError and ClientAccountRequestThrottlingError are excluded. ClientShareEgressThrottlingError: Applicable to premium file shares only. Other client-side throttling error. The request failed due to egress bandwidth throttling for exceeding share limits. ClientAccountBandwidthThrottlingError is excluded. ClientShareIngressThrottlingError: Applicable to premium file shares only. Other client-side throttling error. The request failed due to ingress bandwidth throttling for exceeding share limits. ClientAccountBandwidthThrottlingError is excluded. ClientShareIopsThrottlingError: Other client-side throttling error. The request failed due to IOPS throttling. ClientAccountRequestThrottlingError is excluded. ClientTimeoutError: Timed-out authenticated request that returned an HTTP 500 status code. If the client's network timeout or the request timeout is set to a lower value than expected by the storage service, it's an expected timeout. Otherwise, it's reported as a ServerTimeoutError. ClientOtherError: All other client-side errors except described ones. Success: Successful request SuccessWithThrottling: Successful request when an SMB client gets throttled in the first attempt(s) but succeeds after retries. SuccessWithShareEgressThrottling: Applicable to premium file shares only. Successful request when an SMB client gets throttled due to egress bandwidth throttling in the first attempt or attempts, but succeeds after retries. SuccessWithShareIngressThrottling: Applicable to premium file shares only. Successful request when an SMB client gets throttled due to ingress bandwidth throttling in the first attempt or attempts, but succeeds after retries. SuccessWithShareIopsThrottling: Successful request when an SMB client gets throttled due to IOPS throttling in the first attempt(s) but succeeds after retries. SuccessWithMetadataWarning: Applicable to file shares only. Successful request when a client runs high metadata IOPS, which may cause throttling later if the IOPS remain high or increase. SuccessWithMetadataThrottling: Applicable to file shares only. Successful request when a client gets throttled due to high metadata IOPS in the first attempt or attempts, but succeeds after retries.
