when should `FlinkYarnSessionCli` be included for parsing CLI arguments?

Hi Experts,

I recently tried to run yarn-application mode on my yarn cluster, and I had
a problem related to configuring `execution.target`.
After reading the source code and doing some experiments, I found that
there should be some room of improvement for `FlinkYarnSessionCli` or
`AbstractYarnCli`.

My experiments are:

   1. setting `execution.target: yarn-application` in flink-conf.yaml and
   run `flink run-application -t yarn-application`: run job successfully.
      1. `FlinkYarnSessionCli` is not active
      2. `GenericCLI` is active
   2. setting `execution.target: yarn-per-job` in flink-conf.yaml and
run `flink
   run-application -t yarn-application`: run job failed
      1. failed due to `ClusterDeploymentException` [1]
      2. `FlinkYarnSessionCli` is active
   3. setting `execution.target: yarn-application` in flink-conf.yaml and
   run `flink run -t yarn-per-job`: run job successfully.
      1. `FlinkYarnSessionCli` is not active
      2. `GenericCLI` is active
   4. setting `execution.target: yarn-per-job` in flink-conf.yaml and
run `flink
   run -t yarn-per-job`: run job successfully.
      1. `FlinkYarnSessionCli` is active

From `AbstractYarnCli#isActive` [2] and `FlinkYarnSessionCli#isActive` [3],
`FlinkYarnSessionCli` will be active when `execution.target` is specified
with `yarn-per-job` or `yarn-session`.

According to the flink official document [4], I thought the 2nd experiment
should also work well, but it didn't.

> The --target will overwrite the execution.target
> <https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.12/deployment/config.html#execution-target> specified

The root cause is that `FlinkYarnSessionCli` only overwrite the
`execution.target` with `yarn-session` or `yarn-per-job` [5], but no
`yarn-application`.
So, my question is

   1. should we use `FlinkYarnSessionCli` in case 2?
   2. if we should, how we can improve `FlinkYarnSessionCli` so that we can
   overwrite `execution.target` via `--target`?

and one more improvement, the config description for `execution.target` [6]
should include `yarn-application` as well.

Hi Till, Yangze,

I think FLINK-15852 should solve my problem.
It is my fault that my flink version is not 100% consistent with the
community version, and FLINK-15852 is the one I missed.
Thanks for your information.

Re: when should `FlinkYarnSessionCli` be included for parsing CLI arguments?

Posted by Yangze Guo <ka...@gmail.com>.
If the GenericCLI is selected, then the execution.target should have
been overwritten to "yarn-application" in GenericCLI#toConfiguration.
It is odd that why the GenericCLI#isActive return false as the
execution.target is defined in both flink-conf and command line.

Best,
Yangze Guo

Case 2. should definitely work because `-t yarn-application` should overwrite what is defined in the Flink configuration. The problem seems to be that we don't resolve the configuration wrt the specified command line options before calling into `CustomCommandLine.isActive`. If we parsed first the command line configuration options which can overwrite flink-conf.yaml options and then replaced them, then the custom command lines (assuming that they use the Configuration as the ground truth) should behave consistently.

Re: when should `FlinkYarnSessionCli` be included for parsing CLI arguments?

Posted by Tony Wei <to...@gmail.com>.
Hi Till, Yangze,

I think FLINK-15852 should solve my problem.
It is my fault that my flink version is not 100% consistent with the
community version, and FLINK-15852 is the one I missed.
Thanks for your information.

best regards,

Re: when should `FlinkYarnSessionCli` be included for parsing CLI arguments?

Posted by Yangze Guo <ka...@gmail.com>.
If the GenericCLI is selected, then the execution.target should have
been overwritten to "yarn-application" in GenericCLI#toConfiguration.
It is odd that why the GenericCLI#isActive return false as the
execution.target is defined in both flink-conf and command line.

Best,
Yangze Guo

Case 2. should definitely work because `-t yarn-application` should overwrite what is defined in the Flink configuration. The problem seems to be that we don't resolve the configuration wrt the specified command line options before calling into `CustomCommandLine.isActive`. If we parsed first the command line configuration options which can overwrite flink-conf.yaml options and then replaced them, then the custom command lines (assuming that they use the Configuration as the ground truth) should behave consistently.

I think you are right that the `GenericCLI` should be the first choice.
From the top of my head I do not remember why FlinkYarnSessionCli is still
used. Maybe it is in order to support some Yarn specific cli option
parsing. I assume it is either an oversight or some parsing has not been
completely migrated to the GenericCLI.

I think you are right that the `GenericCLI` should be the first choice.
From the top of my head I do not remember why FlinkYarnSessionCli is still
used. Maybe it is in order to support some Yarn specific cli option
parsing. I assume it is either an oversight or some parsing has not been
completely migrated to the GenericCLI.

Re: when should `FlinkYarnSessionCli` be included for parsing CLI arguments?

Posted by Yangze Guo <ka...@gmail.com>.
Hi, Till,

I agree that we need to resolve the issue by overriding the
configuration before selecting the CustomCommandLines. However, IIUC,
after FLINK-15852 the GenericCLI should always be the first choice.
Could you help me to understand why the FlinkYarnSessionCli can be
activated?


Best,

Re: when should `FlinkYarnSessionCli` be included for parsing CLI arguments?

Posted by Till Rohrmann <tr...@apache.org>.
Hi Tony,

I think you are right that Flink's cli does not behave super consistent at
the moment. Case 2. should definitely work because `-t yarn-application`
should overwrite what is defined in the Flink configuration. The problem
seems to be that we don't resolve the configuration wrt the specified
command line options before calling into `CustomCommandLine.isActive`. If
we parsed first the command line configuration options which can overwrite
flink-conf.yaml options and then replaced them, then the custom command
lines (assuming that they use the Configuration as the ground truth) should
behave consistently.

For your questions:

1. I am not 100% sure. I think the FlinkYarnSessionCli wasn't used on
purpose when introducing the yarn application mode.
2. See answer 1.

I think it is a good idea to extend the description of the config option
`execution.target`. Do you want to create a ticket and a PR for it?

Cheers,
Till

Hi Tony,

I think you are right that Flink's cli does not behave super consistent at
the moment. Case 2. should definitely work because `-t yarn-application`
should overwrite what is defined in the Flink configuration. The problem
seems to be that we don't resolve the configuration wrt the specified
command line options before calling into `CustomCommandLine.isActive`. If
we parsed first the command line configuration options which can overwrite
flink-conf.yaml options and then replaced them, then the custom command
lines (assuming that they use the Configuration as the ground truth) should
behave consistently.

For your questions:

1. I am not 100% sure. I think the FlinkYarnSessionCli wasn't used on
purpose when introducing the yarn application mode.
2. See answer 1.

I think it is a good idea to extend the description of the config option
`execution.target`. Do you want to create a ticket and a PR for it?

Cheers,
Till
