> Currently, if Kubernetes/Yarn does not have enough resources to fulfill
> Flink's resource requirement, there will be pending pod/container requests on
> Kubernetes/Yarn. These pending resource requirements are never cleared until
> either fulfilled or the Flink cluster is shutdown.
> However, sometimes Flink no longer needs the pending resources. E.g., the
> slot request is then fulfilled by another slots that become available, or the
> job failed due to slot request timeout (in a session cluster). In such cases,
> Flink does not remove the resource request until the resource is allocated,
> then it discovers that it no longer needs the allocated resource and release
> them. This would affect the underlying Kubernetes/Yarn cluster, especially
> when the cluster is under heavy workload.
> It would be good for Flink to cancel pod/container requests as earlier as
> possible if it can discover that some of the pending workers are no longer
> needed.
> There are several approaches potentially achieve this.
> # We can always check whether there's a pending worker that can be canceled
> when a \{{PendingTaskManagerSlot}} is unassigned.
> # We can have a separate timeout for requesting new worker. If the resource
> cannot be allocated within the given time since requested, we should cancel
> that resource request and claim a resource allocation failure.
> # We can share the same timeout for starting new worker (proposed in
> FLINK-13554). This is similar to 2), but it requires the worker to be
> registered, rather than allocated, before timeout.
