Robert Metzger commented on FLINK-1629: --------------------------------------- For everyone who's ever facing issues stopping a detached Flink-YARN cluster, there is a bug in Hadoop affecting Ubuntu/Debian (and probably many newer distributions): https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9752 So that's the reason why YARN can not kill running containers. > Add option to start Flink on YARN in a detached mode > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-1629 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1629 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: YARN Client > Reporter: Robert Metzger > Assignee: Robert Metzger > > Right now, we expect the YARN command line interface to be connected with the > Application Master all the time to control the "yarn session" or the job. > For very long running sessions or jobs users want to just "fire and forget" a > job/session to YARN. > Stopping the session will still be possible using YARN's tools. > Also, prior to "detaching" itself, the CLI frontend could print the required > command to kill the session as a convenience. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
