Github user StephanEwen commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/917#issuecomment-123723565 The `leaderSessionID` in the JobManager is constant. Can it not change over time? An example would be when a JobManager looses the ZooKeeper connection (network partition) and looses its leader status, but later comes back, and regains leader status.
