> Key: FLINK-21036
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-21036
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Deployment / Scripts
> Reporter: Chesnay Schepler
> Priority: Major
> Labels: pull-request-available
> Fix For: 1.13.0
>
>
> The {{docker-entrypoint.sh}} supports setting the number of task slots via
> the {{TASK_MANAGER_NUMBER_OF_TASK_SLOTS}} environment variable, which
> defaults to the number of cpu cores via {{$(grep -c ^processor
> /proc/cpuinfo)}}.
> The environment variable itself is redundant nowadays since we introduced
> {{FLINK_PROPERTIES}}, and is no longer documented.
> Defaulting to the number of CPU cores can be considered convenience, but it
> seems odd to have this specific to docker while the distribution defaults to
> {{1}}.
> The bigger issue in my mind though is that this creates a configuration
> mismatch between the Job- and TaskManager processes; the ResourceManager
> specifically needs to know how many slots a worker has to make decisions
> about redundancy and allocating resources.
