Maxime Beauchemin commented on AIRFLOW-78: ------------------------------------------ Yes, from memory I'm 90% sure `clear` won't respect the `max_active_runs`, only the scheduler respect this constraint. Both the expectation and desire of users could go both ways. When that's the case, I feel like the best thing to do is to document the behavior. > airflow clear leaves dag_runs > ----------------------------- > > Key: AIRFLOW-78 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-78 > Project: Apache Airflow > Issue Type: Wish > Components: cli > Affects Versions: Airflow 1.6.2 > Reporter: Adrian Bridgett > Assignee: Norman Mu > Priority: Minor > > (moved from https://github.com/apache/incubator-airflow/issues/829) > "airflow clear -c -d -s 2016-01-03 dagid" doesn't clear the dagrun, it sets > it to running instead (apparently since this is often used to re-run jobs). > However this then breaks max_active_runs=1 (I have to stop the scheduler, > then airflow clear, psql to delete the dagrun, then start the scheduler). > This problem was probably seen on an Airflow 1.6.x install. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
