Hi Aljoscha,

Thank you for your response. I guess then I will manually rename the
pending files. Does this however mean that the BucketingSink is not
exactly-once as it is described is the docs, since in this case (failure of
the job and failure of checkpoints) there will be duplicates? Or am I
missing something in the notion of exactly-once guarantees?

Best,
Yassine
