We are not yet using HA in our cluster instances. But yes, we will have to change the zookeeper.path.root ☺
We package our jobs with their own config folder (we don’t rely on flink’s config folder); we can put the maven project name into this property then they will have different values ☺ From: Till Rohrmann [mailto:trohrm...@apache.org] Sent: lundi 23 novembre 2015 14:51 To: user@flink.apache.org Subject: Re: YARN High Availability The problem is the execution graph handle which is stored in ZooKeeper. You can manually remove it via the ZooKeeper shell by simply deleting everything below your `recovery.zookeeper.path.root` ZNode. But you should be sure that the cluster has been stopped before. Do you start the different clusters with different `recovery.zookeeper.path.root` values? If not, then you should run into troubles when running multiple clusters at the same time. The reason is that then all clusters will think that they belong together.

Maybe we are not really using flink as you intended. The way we are using it, one cluster equals one job. That way we are sure to isolate the different jobs as much as possible and in case of crashes / bugs / (etc) can completely kill one cluster without interfering with the other jobs. That future behavior seems good :-) Instead of the manual flink commands, is there to manually delete those old jobs before launching my job ? They probably are somewhere in hdfs, aren't they ?

They are not cleaned up when you shut down the cluster, but only when they finish (either regular finish or after cancelling). The workaround is to use the command line frontend: bin/flink cancel JOBID for each RESTARTING job. Sorry about the inconvenience! We are in an active discussion about addressing this. The future behaviour will be that the startup or shutdown of a cluster cleans up everything and an option to skip this step. The reasoning for the initial solution (not removing anything) was to make sure that no jobs are deleted by accident. But it looks like this is more confusing than helpful. – Ufuk > On 23 Nov 2015, at 11:45, Gwenhael Pasquiers > <gwenhael.pasqui...@ericsson.com<mailto:gwenhael.pasqui...@ericsson.com>> > wrote: > > Hi again ! > > On the same topic I'm still trying to start my streaming job with HA. > The HA part seems to be more or less OK (I killed the JobManager and it came > back), however I have an issue with the TaskManagers. > I configured my job to have only one TaskManager and 1 slot that does > [source=>map=>sink]. > The issue I'm encountering is that other instances of my job appear and are > in the RESTARTING status since there is only one task slot. > > Do you know of this, or have an idea of where to look in order to understand > what's happening ? > > B.R. > > Gwenhaël PASQUIERS > > -----Original Message----- > From: Maximilian Michels [mailto:m...@apache.org<mailto:m...@apache.org>] > Sent: jeudi 19 novembre 2015 13:36 > To: user@flink.apache.org<mailto:user@flink.apache.org> > Subject: Re: YARN High Availability > > The docs have been updated. > > On Thu, Nov 19, 2015 at 12:36 PM, Ufuk Celebi > <u...@apache.org<mailto:u...@apache.org>> wrote: >> I’ve added a note about this to the docs and asked Max to trigger a new >> build of them. >> >> Regarding Aljoscha’s idea: I like it.
