Till Rohrmann commented on FLINK-9635:
--------------------------------------
The problem exists since Flink {{1.5.0}}. Therefore, I would not make it a
blocker for {{1.7.0}}. However, the community is actively working on fixing
this problem for {{1.7.0}}. So I hope that we can include a fix for this
problem.

> Key: FLINK-9635
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-9635
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Distributed Coordination
> Affects Versions: 1.5.0
> Reporter: Till Rohrmann
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 1.7.0
>
>
> In order to make local recovery work, Flink's scheduling was changed such
> that it tries to be rescheduled to its previous location. In order to not
> occupy slots which have state of other tasks cached, the strategy will
> request a new slot if the old slot identified by the previous allocation id
> is no longer present. This also applies to newly allocated slots because
> there is no distinction between new or already used. This behaviour can cause
> that every tasks gets deployed to its own slot if the {{SlotPool}} has
> released all slots in the meantime, for example. The consequence could be
> that a job can no longer be executed after a failure because it needs more
> slots than before.
