Dear Flink Community! I've initially posted my question on SO: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52422499/flink-savepoints-akka-pattern-asktimeoutexception-ask-timed-out-on-actorakka
However, after further investigation, I think it's the issue with Flink 1.6.0 cluster rather me doing something wrong. In nutshell, I'm trying to create a savepoint in Flink job with a rocksdb backend. However, flink cli give me error: CompletionException: akka.pattern.AskTimeoutException: Ask timed out on [Actor[akka://flink/user/jobmanager_0#1140973613]] after [300000 ms]. Sender[null] sent message of type "org.apache.flink.runtime.rpc.messages.LocalFencedMessage" I've checked JM and TM logs and found that TM is doing savepoints of operators without an exception and in couple seconds. flink savepoint --jobmanager xx-xx-5:8081 e569cf53baecae9cb4fa794d590d670f hdfs://foundationhdfs/user/flink/savepoint3 I've grepped by savepoint3 and savepoint4 and everything looks good to me. Could anyone please to help me understand if it's a bug or feature of Flink 1.6.0? ;) Flink JM & TM logs: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Mg0qKJDOkYY14iM_gNO4QYjLB81JGzig/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/19l2HDR9bB7NC-SRyxvKY4qAN0BD650uA/view?usp=sharing
