             Summary: Add capability to set min taskmanager.memory.managed.size when enabling autotuning
                 Key: FLINK-35489
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-35489
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Kubernetes Operator
    Affects Versions: 1.8.0
            Reporter: Nicolas Fraison


We have enable the autotuning feature on one of our flink job with below config
{code:java}
# Autoscaler configuration
job.autoscaler.enabled: "true"
job.autoscaler.stabilization.interval: 1m
job.autoscaler.metrics.window: 10m
job.autoscaler.target.utilization: "0.8"
job.autoscaler.target.utilization.boundary: "0.1"
job.autoscaler.restart.time: 2m
job.autoscaler.catch-up.duration: 10m
job.autoscaler.memory.tuning.enabled: true
job.autoscaler.memory.tuning.overhead: 0.5
job.autoscaler.memory.tuning.maximize-managed-memory: true{code}
During a scale down the autotuning decided to give all the memory to to JVM (having heap being scale by 2) settting taskmanager.memory.managed.size to 0b.
Here is the config that was compute by the autotuning for a TM running on a 4GB pod:
{code:java}
    taskmanager.memory.network.max: 4063232b
    taskmanager.memory.network.min: 4063232b
    taskmanager.memory.jvm-overhead.max: 433791712b
    taskmanager.memory.task.heap.size: 3699934605b
    taskmanager.memory.framework.off-heap.size: 134217728b
    taskmanager.memory.jvm-metaspace.size: 22960020b
    taskmanager.memory.framework.heap.size: "0 bytes"
    taskmanager.memory.flink.size: 3838215565b
    taskmanager.memory.managed.size: 0b {code}
This has lead to some issue starting the TM because we are relying on some javaagent performing some memory allocation outside of the JVM (rely on some C bindings).

Tuning the overhead or disabling the scale-down-compensation.enabled could have helped for that particular event but this can leads to other issue as it could leads to too little HEAP size being computed.

It would be interesting to be able to set a min memory.managed.size to be taken in account by the autotuning.
What do you think about this? Do you think that some other specific config should have been applied to avoid this issue?
