Hello,

 At work, we are currently standing up a cluster with the following
configuration:


   - Flink version: 1.4.2
   - HA Enabled with Zookeeper
   - State backend : rocksDB
   - state.checkpoints.dir: hdfs://namenode:9000/flink/checkpoints
   - state.backend.rocksdb.checkpointdir:
   hdfs://namenode:9000/flink/checkpoints
   - *high-availability.storageDir*: hdfs://namenode:9000/flink/recovery

We have also a job running with checkpointing enabled and without
externalized checkpoint.

We run this job multiple times a day since it's run from our
integration-test pipeline, and we started noticing the folder
*high-availability.storageDir  *storing the completedCheckpoint files is
increasing constantly the number of files created, which is making us
wonder if there is no cleanup policy for the Filesystem when HA is enabled.

Under what  circumstance would there be an ever increasing number of
completedCheckpoint files on the HA storage dir when there is only a single
job running over and over again ?

Here is a list of what we are seeing accumulating over time and actually
reaching the maximum of files allowed on the Filesystem.
