Hi Till, Sorry for the delay, you were right, I was not restarting the yarn cluster…
Many thanks for your help! Ana On 11 Jan 2016, at 14:39, Till Rohrmann <trohrm...@apache.org<mailto:trohrm...@apache.org>> wrote: You have to restart the yarn cluster to let your changes take effect. You can do that via HADOOP_HOME/sbin/stop-yarn.sh; HADOOP_HOME/sbin/start-yarn.sh. The commands yarn-session.sh ... and bin/flink run -m yarn cluster start a new yarn application within the yarn cluster. Cheers, Till On Mon, Jan 11, 2016 at 1:39 PM, Ana M.

I have checked both in Yarn’s web interface and through command line and it seems that there are not occupied containers. Additionally, I have checked the configuration values in the web interface and even though I have changed the log.aggregation property in the yarn-site.xml file to true, it appears as false and with the following source label: <property> <name>yarn.log-aggregation-enable</name> <value>false</value> <source>java.io.BufferedInputStream@3c407114</source> </property> I am not sure if that is relevant. I had assumed that the "./bin/flink run -m yarn-cluster" command is starting a yarn session and thus reloading the yarn-site file. Is that right? If I am wrong here, then, how can I restart it so that the modifications in the yarn-site.xml file are considered? (I have also tried with ./bin/yarn-session.sh and then ./bin/flink run without success…). I am not sure if this is related to flink anymore, should I move my problem to the yarn community instead?

You can check in Yarn’s web interface whether there are still occupied containers. Alternatively you can go to the different machines and run jps which lists you the running Java processes. If you see an ApplicationMaster or YarnTaskManagerRunner process, then there is still a container running with Flink on this machine. I hope this helps you.

I can see the "Logger in LineSplitter.flatMap” output if I retrieve the task manager logs manually (under /var/log/hadoop-yarn/containers/application_X/…). However that solution is not ideal when for instance I am using 32 machines for my mapReduce operations. I would like to know why Yarn’s log aggregation is not working. Can you tell me how to check if there are some Yarn containers running after the Flink job has finished? I have tried: hadoop job -list but I cannot see any jobs there, although I am not sure that it means that there are not containers running...

In contrast, you create a TestClass on the client when you submit the program. Therefore, you see the logging statement “Logger in TestClass” on the command line or in the cli log file. So I would assume that the problem is Yarn’s log aggregation. Either your configuration is not correct or there are still some Yarn containers running after the Flink job has finished. Yarn will only show you the logs after all containers are terminated. Maybe you could check that. Alternatively, you can try to retrieve the taskmanager logs manually by going to the machine where your yarn container was executed. Then under hadoop/logs/userlogs you should find somewhere the logs. Cheers, Till On Fri, Jan 8, 2016 at 3:50 PM, Ana M.

Judging from you commands, you’re starting a long running YARN application running Flink with ./bin/yarn-session.sh -n 1 -tm 2048 -s 4. This cluster won’t be used though, because you’re executing your job with ./bin/flink run -m yarn-cluster which will start another YARN application which is only alive as long as the Flink job is executed. If you want to run your job on the long running YARN application, then you simply have to omit -m yarn-cluster. Cheers, Till On Mon, Jan 4, 2016 at 12:36 PM, Ana M.
