The HS isn't aware of running jobs at all, so yes users would have to switch once the job is done.

As a follow-up question, how well does the history server work for observing a running job? I'm trying to understand whether, in the cluster-per-job model, a user would be expected to hop from the Web UI to the History Server once the job completed.

Thanks

    To add to this:

    The History Server is mainly useful in cases where one runs a
    Flink-cluster-per-job. One the job finished, the processes
    disappear. The History Server should be longer lived to make past
    executions' stats available.

        Hi Elias,
        in theory, it could be integrated into a single web interface,
        but this was
        not done so far.
        I guess the main reason for keeping it separate was probably
        to have a better
        separation of concerns as the history server is actually
        independent of the
        current JobManager execution and merely displays previous job
        results which
        may also come from different or previously existing JobManager
        instances which
        stored history data in its storage directory.

        Chesnay (cc'd) may elaborate a bit more in case you'd like to
        change that and
        integrate the history server (interface) into the JobManager.
