Austin Cawley-Edwards commented on FLINK-24208: ----------------------------------------------- The sketch looks great [~chesnay] ! We may want to clarify the description to say that this is really about safely requesting a savepoint from an external system – the user should not care (or know) if a savepoint with the trigger ID has already been requested (which seems to be how you've implemented it :)). > Allow idempotent savepoint triggering > ------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-24208 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-24208 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Runtime / Checkpointing, Runtime / REST > Reporter: Robert Metzger > Priority: Major > > As a user of Flink, I want to be able to trigger a savepoint from an external > system in a way that I can detect if I have requested this savepoint already. > By passing a custom ID to the savepoint request, I can check (in case of an > error of the original request, or the external system) if the request has > been made already. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
