Exception when restoring state from RocksDB - how to recover?
Hi all,
I just have a couple of questions about checkpointing and restoring
state from RocksDB.
1) In some cases, I find that it is impossible to restore a job from a
checkpoint, due to an exception such as the one pasted below[*]. In
this case, it appears that the last checkpoint is somehow corrupt.
Does anyone know why this might happen?
2) When the above happens, I have no choice but to cancel the job, as
it repeatedly attempts to restart and keeps getting the same
exception. Given that no savepoint was taken recently, is it possible
for me to restore the job from an older checkpoint (e.g. the
second-last checkpoint)?
The version of Flink I'm using Flink-1.1-SNAPSHOT, from mid-June.
Thanks,
Josh

Ah ok great, thanks! I will try upgrading sometime this week then.

Hi Josh!
I think the master has gotten more stable with respect to that. The issue
you mentioned should be fixed.
Another big set of changes (the last big batch) is going in in the next
days - this time for re-sharding timers (window operator) and other state
that is not organized by key.
If you want to be a bit conservative, give it a few days before jumping
onto the latest master. If you are brave, give it a shot now ;-)
Greetings,
Stephan

Hi Stephan,
Thanks, that sounds good!
I'm planning to upgrade to Flink 1.2-SNAPSHOT as soon as possible - I was
delaying upgrading due to the issues with restoring operator state you
mentioned on my other thread here:
http://apache-flink-user-mailing-list-archive.2336050.n4.nabble.com/Flink-job-fails-to-restore-RocksDB-state-after-upgrading-to-1-2-SNAPSHOT-td9110.html
Sorry to jump around but do you know if that's fixed in the latest
1.2-SNAPSHOT? Was it resolved by Flink-4788?
Thanks,
Josh

Hi Josh!
There are two ways to improve the RocksDB / S3 behavior
(1) Use the FullyAsync mode. It stores the data in one file, not in a
directory. Since directories are the "eventual consistent" part of S3, this
prevents many issues.
(2) Flink 1.2-SNAPSHOT has some additional fixes that circumvent additional
S3 issues.
Hope that helps,
Stephan

Hi Aljoscha,
Yeah I'm using S3. Is this a known problem when using S3? Do you have any
ideas on how to restore my job from this state, or prevent it from
happening again?
Thanks,

Hi,
you are using S3 to store the checkpoints, right? It might be that you're
running into a problem with S3 "directory listings" not being consistent.
Cheers,

Hi all,
I just have a couple of questions about checkpointing and restoring
state from RocksDB.
1) In some cases, I find that it is impossible to restore a job from a
checkpoint, due to an exception such as the one pasted below[*]. In
this case, it appears that the last checkpoint is somehow corrupt.
Does anyone know why this might happen?
2) When the above happens, I have no choice but to cancel the job, as
it repeatedly attempts to restart and keeps getting the same
exception. Given that no savepoint was taken recently, is it possible
for me to restore the job from an older checkpoint (e.g. the
second-last checkpoint)?
The version of Flink I'm using Flink-1.1-SNAPSHOT, from mid-June.
Thanks,
Josh
