Antoine Philippot commented on FLINK-7883: ------------------------------------------ ok [~aljoscha], thanks for your feedback, it is far more general than just stop fetching source. I hope this feature will be available after the 1.5 release so that I do not have to reapply my patch to long. > Stop fetching source before a cancel with savepoint > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-7883 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-7883 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: DataStream API, Kafka Connector, State Backends, > Checkpointing > Affects Versions: 1.4.0, 1.3.2 > Reporter: Antoine Philippot > > For a cancel with savepoint command, the JobManager trigger the cancel call > once the savepoint is finished, but during the savepoint execution, kafka > source continue to poll new messages which will not be part of the savepoint > and will be replayed on the next application start. > A solution could be to stop fetching the source stream task before triggering > the savepoint. > I suggest to add an interface {{StoppableFetchingSourceFunction}} with a > method {{stopFetching}} that existant SourceFunction implementations could > implement. > We can add a {{stopFetchingSource}} property in > {{CheckpointOptions}} class to pass the desired behaviour from > {{JobManager.handleMessage(CancelJobWithSavepoint)}} to > {{SourceStreamTask.triggerCheckpoint}} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
