[FLINK-6646] [yarn] Let YarnJobManager delete Yarn application files Before the YarnClusterClient decided when to delete the Yarn application files. This is problematic because the client does not know whether a Yarn application is being restarted or terminated. Due to this the files where always deleted. This prevents Yarn from restarting a failed ApplicationMaster, effectively thwarting Flink's HA capabilities. The PR changes the behaviour such that the YarnJobManager deletes the Yarn files if it receives a StopCluster message. That way, we can be sure that the yarn files are deleted only iff the cluster is intended to be shut down. cc @rmetzger You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running: $ git pull https://github.com/tillrohrmann/flink fixYarnSession Alternatively you can review and apply these changes as the patch at: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/3981.patch To close this pull request, make a commit to your master/trunk branch with (at least) the following in the commit message: This closes #3981 ---- commit 72ce39a1752cc19669f003b70cc2708852a06ac5 Author: Till Rohrmann <trohrm...@apache.org> Date: 2017-05-24T15:59:51Z [FLINK-6646] [yarn] Let YarnJobManager delete Yarn application files Before the YarnClusterClient decided when to delete the Yarn application files.
