Chesnay Schepler commented on FLINK-3050: ----------------------------------------- Would it be sufficient to modify this bit: {code:title=ExecutionGraph.jobVertexInFinalState() - Line 918} else if (current == JobStatus.FAILING) { if (numberOfRetriesLeft > 0 && !(getFailureCause() instanceof UnrecoverableFailure) && transitionState(current, JobStatus.RESTARTING)) { numberOfRetriesLeft--; {code} > Add custom Exception type to suppress job restarts > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-3050 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3050 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Distributed Runtime > Affects Versions: 0.10.0 > Reporter: Ufuk Celebi > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.0.0 > > > In case of failures and configured execution retries, the job will be be > restarted even in cases when the failure is not recoverable. > We can add a custom Exception type like UnrecoverableFailure in order to > suppress restarts in certain cases. The execution graph restart logic can > check the failure type on recovery and skip the restarting. > This Exception can be used both by the system and the user. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
