Hi Fabian, Thanks for your reply and the pointers to documentation.
In these steps, I think the Flink client is installed on the master node, referring to steps mentioned in Flink docs here<https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.0/setup/aws.html>. However, the scenario I have is to run the client on my local machine and submit jobs remotely to the YARN Cluster (running on EMR or independently). Let me describe in more detail here. I am trying to submit a single Flink Job to YARN using the client, running on my dev machine - ./bin/flink run -m yarn-cluster -yn 4 -yjm 1024 -ytm 4096 ./examples/batch/WordCount.jar In my understanding, YARN (running in AWS) allocates a container for the Jobmanager. Jobmanager discovers the IP and started the Actor system. At this step the IP it uses is the internal IP address, of the EC2 instance. The client, running on my dev machine, is not able to connect to the Jobmanager for reasons explained in my mail below. Is there a way, where I can set Jobmanager to use the hostname and not the IP address? Or any other suggestions?

I started a Flink YARN session like this: ./bin/yarn-session.sh -n 4 -jm 1024 -tm 4096 This will start five YARN containers (1 JobManager with 1024MB, 4 Taskmanagers with 4096MB). See more config options in the documentation [1]. In one of the last lines of the std-out output you should find a line that tells you the IP and port of the JobManager. With the IP and port, you can submit a job as follows: ./bin/flink run -m jmIP:jmPort -p 4 jobJarFile.jar <arguments> This will send the job to the JobManager specified by IP and port and execute the program with a parallelism of 4. See more config options in the documentation [2]. If this does not help, could you share the exact command that you use to start the YARN session and submit the job?

I have created a YARN cluster on AWS EC2 machines. Trying to submit Flink job to the remote YARN cluster using the Flink Client running on my local machine. The Jobmanager start successfully on the YARN container but the client is not able to connect to the Jobmanager.

Because of this mismatch the messages are ignored by the Akka actor System. Can someone please help me with this issue. I can share the detailed logs, if required. Thanks, Abhi
