Shuyi Chen commented on FLINK-11914: ------------------------------------ Hi [~feng.xu], I dont think we should expose an Akka endpoint because Akka is an internal implementation detail, and AFAIK, the community is trying to deprecate the use of Akka in Flink. Thanks. > Expose a REST endpoint in JobManager to kill specific TaskManager > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-11914 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-11914 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Runtime / REST > Reporter: Shuyi Chen > Assignee: Shuyi Chen > Priority: Major > > we want to add capability in the Flink web UI to kill each individual TM by > clicking a button, this would require first exposing the capability from the > REST API endpoint. The reason is that some TM might be running on a heavily > loaded YARN host over time, and we want to kill just that TM and have flink > JM to reallocate a TM to restart the job graph. The other approach would be > restart the entire YARN job and this is heavy-weight. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
