Hi, Dan 1. Do you mean put the option into savepoint command? If so, I think it will not work well. This option describe that how checkpoints will be cleaned up in different job status. e.g. FAILED/CANCELED. It cannot be covered in savepoint command. 2. Which flink version you use? I work on 1.14 and There is a confirmation dialog when I click "cancel job". You could double check it. 3. From 1.15 on, the restore mode is introduced to solve the problem as you could see in resuming-from-savepoints <https://nightlies.apache.org/flink/flink-docs-master/docs/ops/state/savepoints/#resuming-from-savepoints>. I think the claim mode maybe what you want.
