Hi Yum
I noticed that the some files are related to the checkpoint but are not
mentioned in the metadata file
and some of the files that are related in the metadata file (usually
ByteStreamStateHandle ) are not in the share file
can you explain this behaviour ?
see code I was using
final Savepoint savepoint = Checkpoints.loadCheckpointMetadata(in,
CheckpointTool.class.getClassLoader());
final Set<String> pathSharedFromMetadata =
savepoint.getOperatorStates().stream()
.flatMap(operatorState ->
operatorState.getSubtaskStates().values().stream()
.flatMap(operatorSubtaskState ->
operatorSubtaskState.getManagedKeyedState().stream()
.flatMap(keyedStateHandle -> ((IncrementalKeyedStateHandle)
keyedStateHandle).getSharedState().values().stream()
.map(streamStateHandle -> {
totalSize[0] += streamStateHandle.getStateSize();
String name = null;
if (streamStateHandle instanceof FileStateHandle) {
name = ((FileStateHandle)
streamStateHandle).getFilePath().getName();
} else {
final String handleName = ((ByteStreamStateHandle)
streamStateHandle).getHandleName();
name = new File(handleName).getName();
}
return name;
}))))
.collect(Collectors.toSet());
Thanks in advance
