Stephan Ewen created FLINK-6328: ----------------------------------- Summary: Savepoints must not be counted as retained checkpoints Key: FLINK-6328 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-6328 Project: Flink Issue Type: Bug Components: State Backends, Checkpointing Affects Versions: 1.2.0 Reporter: Stephan Ewen Priority: Blocker Fix For: 1.3.0, 1.2.2
The Checkpoint Store retains the *n* latest checkpoints. Savepoints are counted as well, meaning that for settings with 1 retained checkpoint, there are sometimes no retained checkpoints at all, only a savepoint. That is dangerous, because savepoints must be assumed to disappear at any point in time - their lifecycle is out of control of the CheckpointCoordinator. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
