-----------------------------------------------
There is not {{_metadata}} means that the checkpoint is not completed. so you
can't restore from it.

> I'm using Flink 1.8.0 version and have enabled externalized checkpoint to
> hdfs location, we have seen few scenarios where checkpoint folders will have
> checkpoint files but only missing "*_metadata*" file. If we attempt to
> restore application from this path, application fails with exception "Could
> not find *_metadata* file. There is similar discussion in Flink user mailing
> list with subject "Zookeeper connection loss causing checkpoint corruption"
> around it. I've attached sample snapshot on how folder structure looks as
> well.
