> The current solution of stopping a TaskManager instance when JobManager sends a deletion request is by directly calling {{KubernetesClient.pods().withName().delete}}, thus that instance would be violently killed with a _KILL_ signal and having no chance to clean up, which could cause problems because we expect the process to gracefully terminate when it is no longer needed.
> Refer to the guide of [Termination of Pods|#termination-of-pods], we know that on Kubernetes a _TERM_ signal would be first sent to the main process in each container, and may be followed up with a force _KILL_ signal if the graceful shut-down period has expired; the Unix signal will be sent to the process which has PID 1 ([Docker Kill|https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/kill/]), however, the TaskManagerRunner process is spawned by {color:#172b4d}/opt/flink/bin/kubernetes-entry.sh {color}and could never have PID 1, so it would never receive the TERM signal.
