Hi Niels, so the problem is that you can not submit a job to Flink using the "/bin/flink" tool, right? I assume Flink and its TaskManagers properly start and connect to each other (the number of TaskManagers is shown correctly in the web interface).
I see the following solutions for the problem a) Add a new page in the job manager web frontend allowing users to upload and execute a jar with a flink job b) add options for starting the jobmanager and blob manager on the job manager container on fixed ports c) Somehow make the akka rpc requests and blob manager uploads over HTTP using the YARN proxy The reason why we use a free port instead a fixed port is that this way two job manager containers can run on the same machine. So solution b) would only work if users are not using multiple flink jobs / sessions on yarn at the same time (or you make somehow sure they are not running on the same machine). What's your take on the three solutions? Does anybody here know how MR is doing it? Are they running the ApplicationMaster RPC on a fixed port? Do they use HTTP-based calls over the proxy?
