It seems requiring the checkpoint URL to create the RocksDBStateBackend mixes up the operational aspects of cluster within the job. RocksDBStateBackend stateBackend = new RocksDBStateBackend(“CHECKPOINT_URL”, true); stateBackend.setDbStoragePath(“DB_STORAGE_PATH”);
Also, noticed that the RocksDBStateBackend picks up the savepoint dir from property “state.savepoints.dir” of the flink-conf.yaml file but does not pick up the “state.backend.rocksdb.localdir”. So I had to set from the job as above. I feel there is a disconnect and would like to get confirmation of the above behavior, if possible. I am using Flink 1.7.1.

Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. AFAIK this is not possible; the client doesn't know anything about the cluster configuration. FLINK-15747 proposes to add an additional config option for controlling the logging behavior. The only workaround I can think of would be to create a custom Flink distribution with a modified RocksDBStateBackend which always sets these options by default.

It seems the workaround suggested uses the OptionsFactory to set some of the parameters from inside the job. Since we provision the Flink cluster(version 1.7.1) for the teams, we control the RocksDB statebackend configuration from flink-conf.yaml. And it seems there isn’t any related RocksDB configuration<https://eur02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fci.apache.org%2Fprojects%2Fflink%2Fflink-docs-release-1.7%2Fops%2Fconfig.html%23rocksdb-state-backend&data=01%7C01%7C%7C65ecdeaef08b4db3b70208d7e74e0991%7C6d4034cd72254f72b85391feaea64919%7C1&sdata=Pj1JIfN2AHc9jinYAEv6znjrcttwcEYIDnIdfQsf3cA%3D&reserved=0> to set in flink-conf.yaml. Is there a way for the job developer to retrieve the default statebackend information from the cluster in the job and set the DBOptions on top of it? Appreciate the help! ~ Abhinav Bajaj PS: Sharing below snippet as desired option if possible - StreamExecutionEnvironment streamExecEnv = StreamExecutionEnvironment.getExecutionEnvironment(); StateBackend stateBackend = streamExecEnv.getDefaultStateBackend(); stateBackend.setOptions(new OptionsFactory() { @Override public DBOptions createDBOptions(DBOptions dbOptions) { dbOptions.setInfoLogLevel(InfoLogLevel.WARN_LEVEL); dbOptions.setMaxLogFileSize(1024 * 1024) return dbOptions; } @Override public ColumnFamilyOptions createColumnOptions(ColumnFamilyOptions columnFamilyOptions) { return columnFamilyOptions; } });
