Sorry for the late answer. I haven’t been in the office.
The logs show no problems.
The files that remain in the shared subfolder are almost all 1121 bytes. Except
the files from the latest checkpoint (30 files for all operators)
For each historic checkpoint six files remain (parallelism is 6)

The ttldb stream backend is mostly a copy of the current
flink-statebackend-rocksb which uses the TtlDB instead of the RockDB class with
the following configuration:
protected void buildDefaultStateBackend(StreamExecutionEnvironment
executionEnvironment) throws IOException {
FsStateBackend fsStateBackend = new
FsStateBackend(configuration.getCheckpointDirectory(), true);
RocksDBStateBackend rocksDBStateBackend = new
de.helaba.rtts.ice.rocksdb.ttl.RocksDBStateBackend(fsStateBackend,
TernaryBoolean.TRUE, configuration.getStateTimeToLive());
rocksDBStateBackend.setPredefinedOptions(PredefinedOptions.SPINNING_DISK_OPTIMIZED_HIGH_MEM);
rocksDBStateBackend.setOptions(new StpRocksDbOptions());
executionEnvironment.setStateBackend(rocksDBStateBackend);
}
protected void configureCheckpointing(StreamExecutionEnvironment
executionEnvironment) {
CheckpointConfig checkpointConfig =
executionEnvironment.getCheckpointConfig();
checkpointConfig.setCheckpointInterval(configuration.getCheckpointInterval());
checkpointConfig.setMinPauseBetweenCheckpoints(configuration.getCheckpointMinPause());
checkpointConfig.enableExternalizedCheckpoints(CheckpointConfig.ExternalizedCheckpointCleanup.DELETE_ON_CANCELLATION);
checkpointConfig.setCheckpointingMode(CheckpointingMode.EXACTLY_ONCE);
executionEnvironment.getConfig().setUseSnapshotCompression(true);
}

Betreff: Re: number of files in checkpoint directory grows endlessly
Could you share the logs to check possible failures to subsume or remove
previous checkpoints?
What is the sizes of the files? It can help to understand how compaction goes.
Could you also provide more details how you setup TtlDb with Flink?
Best,
Andrey

Compaction merges SST files in background using native threads. While merging
it filters out removed and expired data. In general, the idea is that there are
enough resources for compaction to keep up with the DB update rate and reduce
storage. It can be quite IO intensive. Compaction has a lot of tuning knobs and
statistics to monitor the process [1] which are usually out of the scope of
Flink depending on state access pattern of the application. You can create and
set RocksDBStateBackend for you application in Flink and configure it with
custom RocksDb/column specific options.

We use TtlDB because the state contents should expire automatically after 24
hours. Therefore we only changed the state backend to use TtlDb instead of
RocksDB with a fixed retention time.
We have a slow IO because we only have SAN volumes available. Can you further
clarify the problem with slow compaction.

Bernd

Betreff: Re: number of files in checkpoint directory grows endlessly
If you use incremental checkpoints, state backend stores raw RocksDB SST files
which represent all state data. Each checkpoint adds SST files with new updates
which are not present in previous checkpoint, basically their difference.
One of the following could be happening:
- old keys are not explicitly deleted or expire (depending on how TtlDb is used)
- compaction is too slow to drop older SST files for the latest checkpoint so
that they can be deleted with the previous checkpoints

Hi
We use Flink 1..6.2. As for the checkpoint directory there is only one chk-xxx
directory. Therefore if would expect only one checkpoint remains.
The value of 'state.checkpoints.num-retained’ is not set explicitly.
The problem is not the number of checkpoints but the number of files in the
"shared" directory next to the chk-xxx directory.

Betreff: Re: number of files in checkpoint directory grows endlessly
Hi Bernd,
Did you change 'state.checkpoints.num-retained’ in flink-conf.yaml? By default,
only one checkpoint should be retained.
Which version of Flink do you use?
Can you check Job Master logs whether you see there warning like this:
`Fail to subsume the old checkpoint`?
Best,
Andrey

I think the Till, Stefan or Stephan (cc'ed) are the best to answer your
