Testing externalized checkpoints in a YARN-based cluster, configured with: env.getCheckpointConfig.enableExternalizedCheckpoints(ExternalizedCheckpointCleanup.RETAIN_ON_CANCELLATION);
I can confirm that checkpoint is retained between cancelled jobs, however it’s deleted when the Job Manager session is gracefully shutdown. We’d really like for the persistent checkpoint to be treated like a Savepoint and not be deleted. Is there a way to enable this?
