@ShashwatRastogi-Reflektion It's a bit odd that there are different ID's
shown, I will have to look into that. It may be that one display accounts for
the uid while the other one doesn't; in any case one of them should be the task
ID.
I should've asked earlier; which version of Flink are you using?
If it is 1.2 or below, then I don't know at the moment what the problem
could be.
If it is 1.3 or above, the steps I mentioned have to be done for each
operator, and not task. That said, I'm not sure if we actually expose the id of
each operator anywhere in 1.3 in a nice way... You may have to resort to
trial&error; if a state can't be assigned to an operator you should get an
exception containing the ID of the state (unless you explicitly allow
[non-restored
state](https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-master/ops/state/savepoints.html#allowing-non-restored-state),
which you can then use as the uid hash. If you are already on 1.4 you can
figure them out with the metric system (for example with the JMXReporter).
