ASF GitHub Bot commented on FLINK-6489: --------------------------------------- GitHub user StephanEwen opened a pull request: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/5528 [FLINK-6489] [FLINK-8696] [shell scripts] Remove JobManager local mode from the Shell Scripts ## What is the purpose of the change The JobManager local mode is problematic: - The JobManager does not start all components properly, making some operations fail/timeout unexpectedly - It introduces code complexity in maintaining the JobManager entry point that also spawns an embedded TaskManager The JobManager local mode is also unnecessary. The `start-cluster.sh` script sets up a proper local cluster without additional configuration. This pull request removes the local mode from all UNIX scripts and changes the Windows `start-local.bat` to a `start-cluster.bat` that also starts two separate processes for JobManager and TaskManager. ## Brief change log - Changes the `start-local.bat` to a `start-cluster.bat` which spawns two processes (using `start` command). The two processes show up as separate windows and can be stopped separately. - Removes the `start-local-sh` and `stop-local.sh` scripts. - Removes the passing of the *local* parameter between the shell scripts and always passes *cluster* as the execution mode parameter to the JobManager. The next step would be to remove the execution mode from the JobManagers command line argument parsing and setup logic. ## Verifying this change - Building Flink, starting a cluster via the shell scripts (Linux, MacOS, Windows) and checking the WebUI that the cluster is properly up. No actual job execution needed. ## Does this pull request potentially affect one of the following parts: - Dependencies (does it add or upgrade a dependency): (yes / **no)** - The public API, i.e., is any changed class annotated with `@Public(Evolving)`: (yes / **no)** - The serializers: (yes / **no** / don't know) - The runtime per-record code paths (performance sensitive): (yes / **no** / don't know) - Anything that affects deployment or recovery: JobManager (and its components), Checkpointing, Yarn/Mesos, ZooKeeper: (yes / **no** / don't know) - The S3 file system connector: (yes / **no** / don't know) ## Documentation - Does this pull request introduce a new feature? (yes / **no)** - If yes, how is the feature documented? (not applicable / **docs** / JavaDocs / not documented) Docs are updated to not refer to `start-local.xy` any more.
