Hi guys,
Just to close the loop, with the Flink 1.3.2 cli you have to provide the
Flink Job Manager host address in order to submit a job like so:
${FLINK_HOME}/bin/flink run -d -m ${FLINK_JOBMANAGER_ADDRESS} ${JOB_JAR}
Since we are running the DCOS Flink package we use the Marathon rest api to
fetch the FLINK_JOBMANAGER_ADDRESS which solved our problem.
We are now thinking of upgrading to the latest 1.6 release. From looking at
the cli docs and from the previous messages it seems you still need to
provide the Job Manager address explicitly. Are there any plans to support
job submission that just takes a zookeeper ensemble and zookeeperNamespace
(which is currently accepted) without having to provide explicit Job
Manager address? This would be more user friendly and would eliminate the
extra step of figuring out the Job Manager address.
Thanks,
M
