Till Rohrmann commented on FLINK-17714: --------------------------------------- I believe one way to tackle is to allow users to define a custom implementation of {{RestartBackoffTimeStrategy}} which the user could set on the {{ExecutionConfig}} or define in the cluster configuration. Whether to use the plugin mechanism or not is a good question. Ideally it would not clutter the Flink class path but at this point I would consider this an implementation detail. > Support custom RestartBackoffTimeStrategy > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-17714 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-17714 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Wish > Components: Runtime / Coordination > Reporter: Zhu Zhu > Priority: Major > > There are cases that users need to customize RestartBackoffTimeStrategy to > better control job recovery. > One example is that users want a job to restart only on certain errors and > fail on others.
