Aljoscha Krettek commented on FLINK-3841: ----------------------------------------- You're absolutely right. Should probably check this in {{getPartitionedState}} and create the db if it doesn't exist. [~gyfora] Do you want to take it or should I quickly fix it? > RocksDB statebackend creates empty dbs for stateless operators > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-3841 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3841 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Bug > Components: state backends > Reporter: Gyula Fora > Priority: Minor > > Even though they are not checkpointed there is always an open RocksDB > database for all operators if the Rocks backend is set. I wonder if it would > make sense to lazy initialize the dbs instead of doing it in the > initializeForJob method. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
