Flink Jira Bot updated FLINK-13537:
-----------------------------------
    Labels: auto-deprioritized-major stale-minor  (was: 
auto-deprioritized-major)

I am the [Flink Jira Bot|https://github.com/apache/flink-jira-bot/] and I help 
the community manage its development. I see this issues has been marked as 
Minor but is unassigned and neither itself nor its Sub-Tasks have been updated 
for 180 days. I have gone ahead and marked it "stale-minor". If this ticket is 
still Minor, please either assign yourself or give an update. Afterwards, 
please remove the label or in 7 days the issue will be deprioritized.

>             Project: Flink
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Connectors / Kafka
>    Affects Versions: 1.8.1, 1.9.0
>            Reporter: Nico Kruber
>            Priority: Minor
>              Labels: auto-deprioritized-major, stale-minor

> The Kafka producer's transaction IDs are only generated once when there was 
> no previous state for that operator. In the case where we restore and 
> increase parallelism (scale-out), some operators may not have previous state 
> and create new IDs. Now, if we also reduce the {{poolSize}}, these new IDs 
> may overlap with the old ones which should never happen! Similarly, a 
> scale-in + increasing {{poolSize}} could lead the the same thing.
> An easy "fix" for this would be to forbid changing the {{poolSize}}. We could 
> potentially be a bit better by only forbidding changes that can lead to 
> transaction ID overlaps which we can identify from the formulae that 
> {{TransactionalIdsGenerator}} uses. This should probably be the first step 
> which can also be back-ported to older Flink versions just in case.
> ----
> On a side note, the current scheme also relies on the fact, that the 
> operator's list state distributes previous states during scale-out in a 
> fashion that only the operators with the highest subtask indices do not get a 
> previous state. This is somewhat "guaranteed" by 
> {{OperatorStateStore#getListState()}} but I'm not sure whether we should 
> actually rely on that there.
