Till Rohrmann created FLINK-4112: ------------------------------------ Summary: Replace SuppressRestartException with disabling RestartStrategy Key: FLINK-4112 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4112 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Components: Distributed Coordination Affects Versions: 1.1.0 Reporter: Till Rohrmann Priority: Minor Fix For: 1.2.0
Currently, Flink uses {{SuppressRestartExceptions}} to suppress job restarts. This mechanism can be used by different components to control the lifecycle of a job. Since the control flow of exceptions can be quite difficult retrace, I propose to replace this mechanism by an explicit {{RestartStrategy}} disable method. So instead of throwing a {{SuppressRestartException}} we should disable the {{RestartStrategy}} to avoid further job restarts. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
