Till Rohrmann commented on FLINK-21844: --------------------------------------- I think if the user does not configure an explicit {{maxParallelism}}, then Flink should fall back to the default setting as defined in https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/37a8e3cac73587fb845617c6accd1c51def306e6/flink-runtime/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/runtime/state/KeyGroupRangeAssignment.java#L137. But we shouldn't fail since we did not fail before. > Do not auto-configure maxParallelism when setting "scheduler-mode: reactive" > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-21844 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-21844 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Runtime / Coordination > Reporter: Konstantin Knauf > Assignee: Austin Cawley-Edwards > Priority: Major > Fix For: 1.13.0 > > > I believe we should not automatically change the maxParallelism when the > "scheduler-mode" is set to "reactive", because: > * it magically breaks savepoint compatibility, when you switch between > default and reactive scheduler mode > * the maximum parallelism is an orthogonal concern that in my opinion should > not be mixed with the scheduler mode. The reactive scheduler should respect > the maxParallelism, but it should not set/ change its default value. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
