             Summary: Buggy registration from TaskManager to JobManager
                 Key: FLINK-1352
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1352
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: JobManager, TaskManager
    Affects Versions: 0.9
            Reporter: Stephan Ewen
            Assignee: Till Rohrmann
             Fix For: 0.9


The JobManager's InstanceManager may refuse the registration attempt from a 
TaskManager, because it has this taskmanager already connected, or,in the 
future, because the TaskManager has been blacklisted as unreliable.

Unpon refused registration, the instance ID is null, to signal that refused 
registration. TaskManager reacts incorrectly to such methods, assuming 
successful registration

Possible solution: JobManager sends back a dedicated "RegistrationRefused" 
message, if the instance manager returns null as the registration result. If 
the TastManager receives that before being registered, it knows that the 
registration response was lost (which should not happen on TCP and it would 
indicate a corrupt connection)

Followup question: Does it make sense to have the TaskManager trying 
indefinitely to connect to the JobManager. With increasing interval (from 
seconds to minutes)?
