Hey Folks: Please let me know how to resolve this issue since using --allowNonRestoredState without knowing if any state will be lost seems risky.

If you want to allow to skip this, you can set the --allowNonRestoredState option on the CLI. at org.apache.flink.runtime.checkpoint.Checkpoints.loadAndValidateCheckpoint(Checkpoints.java:205) at org.apache.flink.runtime.checkpoint.CheckpointCoordinator.restoreSavepoint(CheckpointCoordinator.java:1102) at org.apache.flink.runtime.jobmaster.JobMaster.tryRestoreExecutionGraphFromSavepoint(JobMaster.java:1219) at org.apache.flink.runtime.jobmaster.JobMaster.createAndRestoreExecutionGraph(JobMaster.java:1143) at org.apache.flink.runtime.jobmaster.JobMaster.<init>(JobMaster.java:294) at org.apache.flink.runtime.jobmaster.JobManagerRunner.<init>(JobManagerRunner.java:157) ... 10 more I've tried to start an application instance from the checkpoint too of the first instance but it gives the same exception indicating that the operator is not available. Questions: 1. If this a problem because some of the operators don't have uid ?2. Is it required to have uids even for stateless operators like simple map or filter operators ?3. Is there a way to find out which operator is not available in the new application even though I am running the same application ?4. Is there a way to figure out if this is the only missing operator or are there others whose mapping is missing for the second instance run ?5. Is this issue resolved in Apache Flink 1.9 (since I am still using Flink 1.6) If there any additional pointers please let me know. Thanks Mans
