Yun Tang created FLINK-11695: -------------------------------- Summary: [checkpoint] Make sharedStateDir could create sub-directories to avoid MaxDirectoryItemsExceededException Key: FLINK-11695 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-11695 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Components: State Backends, Checkpointing Reporter: Yun Tang Assignee: Yun Tang
We meet this annoying problem many times when the {{sharedStateDir}} in checkpoint path exceeded the directory items limit due to large checkpoint: {code:java} org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.protocol.FSLimitException$MaxDirectoryItemsExceededException: The directory item limit of xxx is exceeded: limit=1048576 items=1048576 {code} Currently, our solution is to let {{FsCheckpointStorage}} could create sub-dirs when calling {{resolveCheckpointStorageLocation}}. The default value for the number of sub-dirs is zero, just keep backward compatibility as current situation. The created sub-dirs have the name as integer value of \{{0 ~ num-of-sub-dirs }} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
