Github user tillrohrmann commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/1227#issuecomment-145812243 I think it makes a difference if the JVM is killed with SIGTERM or SIGKILL. In the former case, the shutdown hooks will be executed. I might be that Yarn first sends a SIGTERM signal before SIGKILL in case of a JVM termination which is not intended. But maybe @rmetzger can chime in here.
