[jira] [Created] (FLINK-38307) Resuming from both savepoints and checkpoints is NOT supported for Changelog State Backend

Naci Simsek created FLINK-38307:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Resuming from both savepoints and checkpoints is NOT supported for Changelog State Backend
                 Key: FLINK-38307
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-38307
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Runtime / Checkpointing, Runtime / State Backends
    Affects Versions: 1.19.1, 1.18.1, 1.19.0, 1.18.0
         Environment: The piece of code that triggers is:
{code:java}
 private void checkForcedFullSnapshotSupport(CheckpointOptions checkpointOptions) {
        if (checkpointOptions.getCheckpointType().equals(CheckpointType.FULL_CHECKPOINT)
                && !stateBackend.supportsNoClaimRestoreMode()) {
            throw new IllegalStateException(
                    String.format(
                            "Configured state backend (%s) does not support enforcing a full"
                                    + " snapshot. If you are restoring in %s mode, please"
                                    + " consider choosing %s mode.",
                            stateBackend, RecoveryClaimMode.NO_CLAIM, RecoveryClaimMode.CLAIM));
        } else if (checkpointOptions.getCheckpointType().isSavepoint()) {
            SavepointType savepointType = (SavepointType) checkpointOptions.getCheckpointType();
            if (!stateBackend.supportsSavepointFormat(savepointType.getFormatType())) {
                throw new IllegalStateException(
                        String.format(
                                "Configured state backend (%s) does not support %s savepoints",
                                stateBackend, savepointType.getFormatType()));
            }
        }
    } {code}
 

 The configuration for *{{CLAIM}}* is not even checked when throwing the exception.
            Reporter: Naci Simsek
         Attachments: flink_changelog_restore_logs.zip

Start Flink deployment with below settings:
{code:java}
execution.savepoint-restore-mode, CLAIM
execution.checkpointing.interval, 20s
execution.checkpointing.externalized-checkpoint-retention, RETAIN_ON_CANCELLATION
execution.checkpointing.max-concurrent-checkpoints, 1 {code}
 

Wait for couple checkpoints, and cancel the app.

Then, start new flink app by resuming from either an existing checkpoint or savepoint, does NOT matter, with state backend CHANGELOG enabled as follows:
{code:java}
execution.savepoint-restore-mode, CLAIM
state.backend.changelog.enabled, true
execution.checkpointing.interval, 20s
dstl.dfs.base-path, file:///flink/flink_binary_releases/flink-1.18.1/dstl
state.backend.changelog.storage, filesystem
execution.checkpointing.externalized-checkpoint-retention, RETAIN_ON_CANCELLATION
execution.checkpointing.max-concurrent-checkpoints, 1{code}
*Expected result:*

As stated here in the Flink doc, app should successfully be restored and operate successfully.

*Actual Result:*

App at first, seemed to be restored successfully, till the first checkpoint it performs.

As soon as a checkpoint is triggered, flink throws below exception:

This exception makes it impossible to activate changelog state backend for the pipelines where state restore is essential.
