配置参数 #

All configuration is done in conf/flink-conf.yaml, which is expected to be a flat collection of YAML key value pairs with format key: value.

The configuration is parsed and evaluated when the Flink processes are started. Changes to the configuration file require restarting the relevant processes.

The out of the box configuration will use your default Java installation. You can manually set the environment variable JAVA_HOME or the configuration key env.java.home in conf/flink-conf.yaml if you want to manually override the Java runtime to use.

You can specify a different configuration directory location by defining the FLINK_CONF_DIR environment variable. For resource providers which provide non-session deployments, you can specify per-job configurations this way. Make a copy of the conf directory from the Flink distribution and modify the settings on a per-job basis. Note that this is not supported in Docker or standalone Kubernetes deployments. On Docker-based deployments, you can use the FLINK_PROPERTIES environment variable for passing configuration values.

On session clusters, the provided configuration will only be used for configuring execution parameters, e.g. configuration parameters affecting the job, not the underlying cluster.

Basic Setup #

The default configuration supports starting a single-node Flink session cluster without any changes. The options in this section are the ones most commonly needed for a basic distributed Flink setup.

Hostnames / Ports

These options are only necessary for standalone application- or session deployments (simple standalone or Kubernetes).

If you use Flink with Yarn or the active Kubernetes integration, the hostnames and ports are automatically discovered.

rest.address, rest.port: These are used by the client to connect to Flink. Set this to the hostname where the JobManager runs, or to the hostname of the (Kubernetes) service in front of the JobManager’s REST interface.
The jobmanager.rpc.address (defaults to “localhost”) and jobmanager.rpc.port (defaults to 6123) config entries are used by the TaskManager to connect to the JobManager/ResourceManager. Set this to the hostname where the JobManager runs, or to the hostname of the (Kubernetes internal) service for the JobManager. This option is ignored on setups with high-availability where the leader election mechanism is used to discover this automatically.

Memory Sizes

The default memory sizes support simple streaming/batch applications, but are too low to yield good performance for more complex applications.

jobmanager.memory.process.size: Total size of the JobManager (JobMaster / ResourceManager / Dispatcher) process.
taskmanager.memory.process.size: Total size of the TaskManager process.

The total sizes include everything. Flink will subtract some memory for the JVM’s own memory requirements (metaspace and others), and divide and configure the rest automatically between its components (JVM Heap, Off-Heap, for Task Managers also network, managed memory etc.).

These values are configured as memory sizes, for example 1536m or 2g.

Parallelism

taskmanager.numberOfTaskSlots: The number of slots that a TaskManager offers (default: 1). Each slot can take one task or pipeline. Having multiple slots in a TaskManager can help amortize certain constant overheads (of the JVM, application libraries, or network connections) across parallel tasks or pipelines. See the Task Slots and Resources concepts section for details.

Running more smaller TaskManagers with one slot each is a good starting point and leads to the best isolation between tasks. Dedicating the same resources to fewer larger TaskManagers with more slots can help to increase resource utilization, at the cost of weaker isolation between the tasks (more tasks share the same JVM).
parallelism.default: The default parallelism used when no parallelism is specified anywhere (default: 1).

Checkpointing

You can configure checkpointing directly in code within your Flink job or application. Putting these values here in the configuration defines them as defaults in case the application does not configure anything.

state.backend.type: The state backend to use. This defines the data structure mechanism for taking snapshots. Common values are filesystem or rocksdb.
state.checkpoints.dir: The directory to write checkpoints to. This takes a path URI like s3://mybucket/flink-app/checkpoints or hdfs://namenode:port/flink/checkpoints.
state.savepoints.dir: The default directory for savepoints. Takes a path URI, similar to state.checkpoints.dir.
execution.checkpointing.interval: The base interval setting. To enable checkpointing, you need to set this value larger than 0.

Web UI

web.submit.enable: Enables uploading and starting jobs through the Flink UI (true by default). Please note that even when this is disabled, session clusters still accept jobs through REST requests (HTTP calls). This flag only guards the feature to upload jobs in the UI.
web.cancel.enable: Enables canceling jobs through the Flink UI (true by default). Please note that even when this is disabled, session clusters still cancel jobs through REST requests (HTTP calls). This flag only guards the feature to cancel jobs in the UI.
web.upload.dir: The directory where to store uploaded jobs. Only used when web.submit.enable is true.

Other

io.tmp.dirs: The directories where Flink puts local data, defaults to the system temp directory (java.io.tmpdir property). If a list of directories is configured, Flink will rotate files across the directories.

The data put in these directories include by default the files created by RocksDB, spilled intermediate results (batch algorithms), and cached jar files.

This data is NOT relied upon for persistence/recovery, but if this data gets deleted, it typically causes a heavyweight recovery operation. It is hence recommended to set this to a directory that is not automatically periodically purged.

Yarn and Kubernetes setups automatically configure this value to the local working directories by default.

Common Setup Options #

Common options to configure your Flink application or cluster.

Hosts and Ports #

Options to configure hostnames and ports for the different Flink components.

The JobManager hostname and port are only relevant for standalone setups without high-availability. In that setup, the config values are used by the TaskManagers to find (and connect to) the JobManager. In all highly-available setups, the TaskManagers discover the JobManager via the High-Availability-Service (for example ZooKeeper).

Setups using resource orchestration frameworks (K8s, Yarn) typically use the framework’s service discovery facilities.

You do not need to configure any TaskManager hosts and ports, unless the setup requires the use of specific port ranges or specific network interfaces to bind to.

Key	Default	Type	Description
jobmanager.rpc.address	(none)	String	The config parameter defining the network address to connect to for communication with the job manager. This value is only interpreted in setups where a single JobManager with static name or address exists (simple standalone setups, or container setups with dynamic service name resolution). It is not used in many high-availability setups, when a leader-election service (like ZooKeeper) is used to elect and discover the JobManager leader from potentially multiple standby JobManagers.
jobmanager.rpc.port	6123	Integer	The config parameter defining the network port to connect to for communication with the job manager. Like jobmanager.rpc.address, this value is only interpreted in setups where a single JobManager with static name/address and port exists (simple standalone setups, or container setups with dynamic service name resolution). This config option is not used in many high-availability setups, when a leader-election service (like ZooKeeper) is used to elect and discover the JobManager leader from potentially multiple standby JobManagers.
metrics.internal.query-service.port	"0"	String	The port range used for Flink's internal metric query service. Accepts a list of ports (“50100,50101”), ranges(“50100-50200”) or a combination of both. It is recommended to set a range of ports to avoid collisions when multiple Flink components are running on the same machine. Per default Flink will pick a random port.
rest.address	(none)	String	The address that should be used by clients to connect to the server. Attention: This option is respected only if the high-availability configuration is NONE.
rest.bind-address	(none)	String	The address that the server binds itself.
rest.bind-port	"8081"	String	The port that the server binds itself. Accepts a list of ports (“50100,50101”), ranges (“50100-50200”) or a combination of both. It is recommended to set a range of ports to avoid collisions when multiple Rest servers are running on the same machine.
rest.port	8081	Integer	The port that the client connects to. If rest.bind-port has not been specified, then the REST server will bind to this port. Attention: This option is respected only if the high-availability configuration is NONE.
taskmanager.data.port	0	Integer	The task manager’s external port used for data exchange operations.
taskmanager.host	(none)	String	The external address of the network interface where the TaskManager is exposed. Because different TaskManagers need different values for this option, usually it is specified in an additional non-shared TaskManager-specific config file.
taskmanager.rpc.port	"0"	String	The external RPC port where the TaskManager is exposed. Accepts a list of ports (“50100,50101”), ranges (“50100-50200”) or a combination of both. It is recommended to set a range of ports to avoid collisions when multiple TaskManagers are running on the same machine.

Fault Tolerance #

These configuration options control Flink’s restart behaviour in case of failures during the execution. By configuring these options in your flink-conf.yaml, you define the cluster’s default restart strategy.

The default restart strategy will only take effect if no job specific restart strategy has been configured via the ExecutionConfig.

Key	Default	Type	Description
restart-strategy.type	(none)	String	Defines the restart strategy to use in case of job failures. Accepted values are: `none`, `off`, `disable`: No restart strategy. `fixeddelay`, `fixed-delay`: Fixed delay restart strategy. More details can be found here. `failurerate`, `failure-rate`: Failure rate restart strategy. More details can be found here. `exponentialdelay`, `exponential-delay`: Exponential delay restart strategy. More details can be found here. If checkpointing is disabled, the default value is `none`. If checkpointing is enabled, the default value is `fixed-delay` with `Integer.MAX_VALUE` restart attempts and '`1 s`' delay.

Fixed Delay Restart Strategy

Key	Default	Type	Description
restart-strategy.fixed-delay.attempts	1	Integer	The number of times that Flink retries the execution before the job is declared as failed if `restart-strategy.type` has been set to `fixed-delay`.
restart-strategy.fixed-delay.delay	1 s	Duration	Delay between two consecutive restart attempts if `restart-strategy.type` has been set to `fixed-delay`. Delaying the retries can be helpful when the program interacts with external systems where for example connections or pending transactions should reach a timeout before re-execution is attempted. It can be specified using notation: "1 min", "20 s"

Failure Rate Restart Strategy

Key	Default	Type	Description
restart-strategy.failure-rate.delay	1 s	Duration	Delay between two consecutive restart attempts if `restart-strategy.type` has been set to `failure-rate`. It can be specified using notation: "1 min", "20 s"
restart-strategy.failure-rate.failure-rate-interval	1 min	Duration	Time interval for measuring failure rate if `restart-strategy.type` has been set to `failure-rate`. It can be specified using notation: "1 min", "20 s"
restart-strategy.failure-rate.max-failures-per-interval	1	Integer	Maximum number of restarts in given time interval before failing a job if `restart-strategy.type` has been set to `failure-rate`.

Retryable Cleanup #

After jobs reach a globally-terminal state, a cleanup of all related resources is performed. This cleanup can be retried in case of failure. Different retry strategies can be configured to change this behavior:

Key	Default	Type	Description
cleanup-strategy.type	"exponential-delay"	String	Defines the cleanup strategy to use in case of cleanup failures. Accepted values are: `none`, `disable`, `off`: Cleanup is only performed once. No retry will be initiated in case of failure. The job artifacts (and the job's JobResultStore entry) have to be cleaned up manually in case of a failure. `fixed-delay`, `fixeddelay`: Cleanup attempts will be separated by a fixed interval up to the point where the cleanup is considered successful or a set amount of retries is reached. Reaching the configured limit means that the job artifacts (and the job's JobResultStore entry) might need to be cleaned up manually. `exponential-delay`, `exponentialdelay`: Exponential delay restart strategy triggers the cleanup with an exponentially increasing delay up to the point where the cleanup succeeded or a set amount of retries is reached. Reaching the configured limit means that the job artifacts (and the job's JobResultStore entry) might need to be cleaned up manually. The default configuration relies on an exponentially delayed retry strategy with the given default values.

Fixed-Delay Cleanup Retry Strategy

Key	Default	Type	Description
cleanup-strategy.fixed-delay.attempts	infinite	Integer	The number of times that Flink retries the cleanup before giving up if `cleanup-strategy.type` has been set to `fixed-delay`. Reaching the configured limit means that the job artifacts (and the job's JobResultStore entry) might need to be cleaned up manually.
cleanup-strategy.fixed-delay.delay	1 min	Duration	Amount of time that Flink waits before re-triggering the cleanup after a failed attempt if the `cleanup-strategy.type` is set to `fixed-delay`. It can be specified using the following notation: "1 min", "20 s"

Exponential-Delay Cleanup Retry Strategy

Key	Default	Type	Description
cleanup-strategy.exponential-delay.attempts	infinite	Integer	The number of times a failed cleanup is retried if `cleanup-strategy.type` has been set to `exponential-delay`. Reaching the configured limit means that the job artifacts (and the job's JobResultStore entry) might need to be cleaned up manually.
cleanup-strategy.exponential-delay.initial-backoff	1 s	Duration	Starting duration between cleanup retries if `cleanup-strategy.type` has been set to `exponential-delay`. It can be specified using the following notation: "1 min", "20 s"
cleanup-strategy.exponential-delay.max-backoff	1 h	Duration	The highest possible duration between cleanup retries if `cleanup-strategy.type` has been set to `exponential-delay`. It can be specified using the following notation: "1 min", "20 s"

Checkpoints and State Backends #

These options control the basic setup of state backends and checkpointing behavior.

The options are only relevant for jobs/applications executing in a continuous streaming fashion. Jobs/applications executing in a batch fashion do not use state backends and checkpoints, but different internal data structures that are optimized for batch processing.

Key	Default	Type	Description
state.backend.type	(none)	String	The state backend to be used to store state. The implementation can be specified either via their shortcut name, or via the class name of a `StateBackendFactory`. If a factory is specified it is instantiated via its zero argument constructor and its `StateBackendFactory#createFromConfig(ReadableConfig, ClassLoader)` method is called. Recognized shortcut names are 'hashmap' and 'rocksdb'.
state.checkpoint-storage	(none)	String	The checkpoint storage implementation to be used to checkpoint state. The implementation can be specified either via their shortcut name, or via the class name of a `CheckpointStorageFactory`. If a factory is specified it is instantiated via its zero argument constructor and its `CheckpointStorageFactory#createFromConfig(ReadableConfig, ClassLoader)` method is called. Recognized shortcut names are 'jobmanager' and 'filesystem'.
state.checkpoints.dir	(none)	String	The default directory used for storing the data files and meta data of checkpoints in a Flink supported filesystem. The storage path must be accessible from all participating processes/nodes(i.e. all TaskManagers and JobManagers).
state.savepoints.dir	(none)	String	The default directory for savepoints. Used by the state backends that write savepoints to file systems (HashMapStateBackend, EmbeddedRocksDBStateBackend).
state.backend.incremental	false	Boolean	Option whether the state backend should create incremental checkpoints, if possible. For an incremental checkpoint, only a diff from the previous checkpoint is stored, rather than the complete checkpoint state. Once enabled, the state size shown in web UI or fetched from rest API only represents the delta checkpoint size instead of full checkpoint size. Some state backends may not support incremental checkpoints and ignore this option.
state.backend.local-recovery	false	Boolean	This option configures local recovery for this state backend. By default, local recovery is deactivated. Local recovery currently only covers keyed state backends (including both the EmbeddedRocksDBStateBackend and the HashMapStateBackend).
state.checkpoints.num-retained	1	Integer	The maximum number of completed checkpoints to retain.
taskmanager.state.local.root-dirs	(none)	String	The config parameter defining the root directories for storing file-based state for local recovery. Local recovery currently only covers keyed state backends. If not configured it will default to <WORKING_DIR>/localState. The <WORKING_DIR> can be configured via `process.taskmanager.working-dir`

High Availability #

High-availability here refers to the ability of the JobManager process to recover from failures.

The JobManager ensures consistency during recovery across TaskManagers. For the JobManager itself to recover consistently, an external service must store a minimal amount of recovery metadata (like “ID of last committed checkpoint”), as well as help to elect and lock which JobManager is the leader (to avoid split-brain situations).

Key	Default	Type	Description
high-availability.type	"NONE"	String	Defines high-availability mode used for cluster execution. To enable high-availability, set this mode to "ZOOKEEPER", "KUBERNETES", or specify the fully qualified name of the factory class.
high-availability.cluster-id	"/default"	String	The ID of the Flink cluster, used to separate multiple Flink clusters from each other. Needs to be set for standalone clusters but is automatically inferred in YARN.
high-availability.storageDir	(none)	String	File system path (URI) where Flink persists metadata in high-availability setups.

Options for the JobResultStore in high-availability setups

Key	Default	Type	Description
job-result-store.delete-on-commit	true	Boolean	Determines whether job results should be automatically removed from the underlying job result store when the corresponding entity transitions into a clean state. If false, the cleaned job results are, instead, marked as clean to indicate their state. In this case, Flink no longer has ownership and the resources need to be cleaned up by the user.
job-result-store.storage-path	(none)	String	Defines where job results should be stored. This should be an underlying file-system that provides read-after-write consistency. By default, this is `{high-availability.storageDir}/job-result-store/{high-availability.cluster-id}`.

Options for high-availability setups with ZooKeeper

Key	Default	Type	Description
high-availability.zookeeper.path.root	"/flink"	String	The root path under which Flink stores its entries in ZooKeeper.
high-availability.zookeeper.quorum	(none)	String	The ZooKeeper quorum to use, when running Flink in a high-availability mode with ZooKeeper.

Memory Configuration #

These configuration values control the way that TaskManagers and JobManagers use memory.

Flink tries to shield users as much as possible from the complexity of configuring the JVM for data-intensive processing. In most cases, users should only need to set the values taskmanager.memory.process.size or taskmanager.memory.flink.size (depending on how the setup), and possibly adjusting the ratio of JVM heap and Managed Memory via taskmanager.memory.managed.fraction. The other options below can be used for performance tuning and fixing memory related errors.

For a detailed explanation of how these options interact, see the documentation on TaskManager and JobManager memory configurations.

Key	Default	Type	Description
jobmanager.memory.enable-jvm-direct-memory-limit	false	Boolean	Whether to enable the JVM direct memory limit of the JobManager process (-XX:MaxDirectMemorySize). The limit will be set to the value of 'jobmanager.memory.off-heap.size' option.
jobmanager.memory.flink.size	(none)	MemorySize	Total Flink Memory size for the JobManager. This includes all the memory that a JobManager consumes, except for JVM Metaspace and JVM Overhead. It consists of JVM Heap Memory and Off-heap Memory. See also 'jobmanager.memory.process.size' for total process memory size configuration.
jobmanager.memory.heap.size	(none)	MemorySize	JVM Heap Memory size for JobManager. The minimum recommended JVM Heap size is 128.000mb (134217728 bytes).
jobmanager.memory.jvm-metaspace.size	256 mb	MemorySize	JVM Metaspace Size for the JobManager.
jobmanager.memory.jvm-overhead.fraction	0.1	Float	Fraction of Total Process Memory to be reserved for JVM Overhead. This is off-heap memory reserved for JVM overhead, such as thread stack space, compile cache, etc. This includes native memory but not direct memory, and will not be counted when Flink calculates JVM max direct memory size parameter. The size of JVM Overhead is derived to make up the configured fraction of the Total Process Memory. If the derived size is less or greater than the configured min or max size, the min or max size will be used. The exact size of JVM Overhead can be explicitly specified by setting the min and max size to the same value.
jobmanager.memory.jvm-overhead.max	1 gb	MemorySize	Max JVM Overhead size for the JobManager. This is off-heap memory reserved for JVM overhead, such as thread stack space, compile cache, etc. This includes native memory but not direct memory, and will not be counted when Flink calculates JVM max direct memory size parameter. The size of JVM Overhead is derived to make up the configured fraction of the Total Process Memory. If the derived size is less or greater than the configured min or max size, the min or max size will be used. The exact size of JVM Overhead can be explicitly specified by setting the min and max size to the same value.
jobmanager.memory.jvm-overhead.min	192 mb	MemorySize	Min JVM Overhead size for the JobManager. This is off-heap memory reserved for JVM overhead, such as thread stack space, compile cache, etc. This includes native memory but not direct memory, and will not be counted when Flink calculates JVM max direct memory size parameter. The size of JVM Overhead is derived to make up the configured fraction of the Total Process Memory. If the derived size is less or greater than the configured min or max size, the min or max size will be used. The exact size of JVM Overhead can be explicitly specified by setting the min and max size to the same value.
jobmanager.memory.off-heap.size	128 mb	MemorySize	Off-heap Memory size for JobManager. This option covers all off-heap memory usage including direct and native memory allocation. The JVM direct memory limit of the JobManager process (-XX:MaxDirectMemorySize) will be set to this value if the limit is enabled by 'jobmanager.memory.enable-jvm-direct-memory-limit'.
jobmanager.memory.process.size	(none)	MemorySize	Total Process Memory size for the JobManager. This includes all the memory that a JobManager JVM process consumes, consisting of Total Flink Memory, JVM Metaspace, and JVM Overhead. In containerized setups, this should be set to the container memory. See also 'jobmanager.memory.flink.size' for Total Flink Memory size configuration.
taskmanager.memory.flink.size	(none)	MemorySize	Total Flink Memory size for the TaskExecutors. This includes all the memory that a TaskExecutor consumes, except for JVM Metaspace and JVM Overhead. It consists of Framework Heap Memory, Task Heap Memory, Task Off-Heap Memory, Managed Memory, and Network Memory. See also 'taskmanager.memory.process.size' for total process memory size configuration.
taskmanager.memory.framework.heap.size	128 mb	MemorySize	Framework Heap Memory size for TaskExecutors. This is the size of JVM heap memory reserved for TaskExecutor framework, which will not be allocated to task slots.
taskmanager.memory.framework.off-heap.batch-shuffle.size	64 mb	MemorySize	Size of memory used by batch shuffle for shuffle data read (currently only used by sort-shuffle and hybrid shuffle). Notes: 1) The memory is cut from 'taskmanager.memory.framework.off-heap.size' so must be smaller than that, which means you may also need to increase 'taskmanager.memory.framework.off-heap.size' after you increase this config value; 2) This memory size can influence the shuffle performance and you can increase this config value for large-scale batch jobs (for example, to 128M or 256M).
taskmanager.memory.framework.off-heap.size	128 mb	MemorySize	Framework Off-Heap Memory size for TaskExecutors. This is the size of off-heap memory (JVM direct memory and native memory) reserved for TaskExecutor framework, which will not be allocated to task slots. The configured value will be fully counted when Flink calculates the JVM max direct memory size parameter.
taskmanager.memory.jvm-metaspace.size	256 mb	MemorySize	JVM Metaspace Size for the TaskExecutors.
taskmanager.memory.jvm-overhead.fraction	0.1	Float	Fraction of Total Process Memory to be reserved for JVM Overhead. This is off-heap memory reserved for JVM overhead, such as thread stack space, compile cache, etc. This includes native memory but not direct memory, and will not be counted when Flink calculates JVM max direct memory size parameter. The size of JVM Overhead is derived to make up the configured fraction of the Total Process Memory. If the derived size is less/greater than the configured min/max size, the min/max size will be used. The exact size of JVM Overhead can be explicitly specified by setting the min/max size to the same value.

The exact size of JVM Overhead can be explicitly specified by setting the min/max size to the same value.
taskmanager.memory.jvm-overhead.min	192 mb	MemorySize	Min JVM Overhead size for the TaskExecutors. This is off-heap memory reserved for JVM overhead, such as thread stack space, compile cache, etc. This includes native memory but not direct memory, and will not be counted when Flink calculates JVM max direct memory size parameter. The size of JVM Overhead is derived to make up the configured fraction of the Total Process Memory. If the derived size is less/greater than the configured min/max size, the min/max size will be used. The exact size of JVM Overhead can be explicitly specified by setting the min/max size to the same value.
taskmanager.memory.managed.consumer-weights	OPERATOR:70,STATE_BACKEND:70,PYTHON:30	Map	Managed memory weights for different kinds of consumers. A slot’s managed memory is shared by all kinds of consumers it contains, proportionally to the kinds’ weights and regardless of the number of consumers from each kind.

taskmanager.memory.managed.fraction	0.4	Float	Fraction of Total Flink Memory to be used as Managed Memory, if Managed Memory size is not explicitly specified.
taskmanager.memory.managed.size	(none)	MemorySize	Managed Memory size for TaskExecutors. This is the size of off-heap memory managed by the memory manager, reserved for sorting, hash tables, caching of intermediate results and RocksDB state backend. Memory consumers can either allocate memory from the memory manager in the form of MemorySegments, or reserve bytes from the memory manager and keep their memory usage within that boundary. If unspecified, it will be derived to make up the configured fraction of the Total Flink Memory.
taskmanager.memory.network.fraction	0.1	Float	Fraction of Total Flink Memory to be used as Network Memory. Network Memory is off-heap memory reserved for ShuffleEnvironment (e.g., network buffers). Network Memory size is derived to make up the configured fraction of the Total Flink Memory. If the derived size is less/greater than the configured min/max size, the min/max size will be used. The exact size of Network Memory can be explicitly specified by setting the min/max size to the same value.
taskmanager.memory.network.max	infinite	MemorySize	Max Network Memory size for TaskExecutors. Network Memory is off-heap memory reserved for ShuffleEnvironment (e.g., network buffers). Network Memory size is derived to make up the configured fraction of the Total Flink Memory. If the derived size is less/greater than the configured min/max size, the min/max size will be used.

This includes all the memory that a TaskExecutor consumes, consisting of Total Flink Memory, JVM Metaspace, and JVM Overhead. On containerized setups, this should be set to the container memory. See also 'taskmanager.memory.flink.size' for total Flink memory size configuration.
taskmanager.memory.task.heap.size	(none)	MemorySize	Task Heap Memory size for TaskExecutors. This is the size of JVM heap memory reserved for tasks. If not specified, it will be derived as Total Flink Memory minus Framework Heap Memory, Framework Off-Heap Memory, Task Off-Heap Memory, Managed Memory and Network Memory.
taskmanager.memory.task.off-heap.size	0 bytes	MemorySize	Task Off-Heap Memory size for TaskExecutors. This is the size of off heap memory (JVM direct memory and native memory) reserved for tasks. The configured value will be fully counted when Flink calculates the JVM max direct memory size parameter.

Resource Orchestration Frameworks #

This section contains options related to integrating Flink with resource orchestration frameworks, like Kubernetes, Yarn, etc.

Note that is not always necessary to integrate Flink with the resource orchestration framework. For example, you can easily deploy Flink applications on Kubernetes without Flink knowing that it runs on Kubernetes (and without specifying any of the Kubernetes config options here.) See this setup guide for an example.

The options in this section are necessary for setups where Flink itself actively requests and releases resources from the orchestrators.

YARN #

Key	Default	Type	Description
external-resource.<resource_name>.yarn.config-key	(none)	String	If configured, Flink will add this key to the resource profile of container request to Yarn. The value will be set to the value of external-resource.<resource_name>.amount.
flink.hadoop.<key>	(none)	String	A general option to probe Hadoop configuration through prefix 'flink.hadoop.'. Flink will remove the prefix to get <key> (from core-default.xml and hdfs-default.xml) then set the <key> and value to Hadoop configuration. For example, flink.hadoop.dfs.replication=5 in Flink configuration and convert to dfs.replication=5 in Hadoop configuration.
flink.yarn.<key>	(none)	String	A general option to probe Yarn configuration through prefix 'flink.yarn.'. Flink will remove the prefix 'flink.' to get yarn.<key> (from yarn-default.xml) then set the yarn.<key> and value to Yarn configuration. For example, flink.yarn.resourcemanager.container.liveness-monitor.interval-ms=300000 in Flink configuration and convert to yarn.resourcemanager.container.liveness-monitor.interval-ms=300000 in Yarn configuration.
yarn.application-attempt-failures-validity-interval	10000	Long	Time window in milliseconds which defines the number of application attempt failures when restarting the AM. Failures which fall outside of this window are not being considered. Set this value to -1 in order to count globally. See here for more information.
yarn.application-attempts	(none)	String	Number of ApplicationMaster restarts. By default, the value will be set to 1. If high availability is enabled, then the default value will be 2. The restart number is also limited by YARN (configured via yarn.resourcemanager.am.max-attempts). Note that the entire Flink cluster will restart and the YARN Client will lose the connection.
yarn.application-master.port	"0"	String	With this configuration option, users can specify a port, a range of ports or a list of ports for the Application Master (and JobManager) RPC port. By default we recommend using the default value (0) to let the operating system choose an appropriate port. In particular when multiple AMs are running on the same physical host, fixed port assignments prevent the AM from starting. For example when running Flink on YARN on an environment with a restrictive firewall, this option allows specifying a range of allowed ports.
yarn.application.id	(none)	String	The YARN application id of the running yarn cluster. This is the YARN cluster where the pipeline is going to be executed.

yarn.containers.vcores	-1	Integer	The number of virtual cores (vcores) per YARN container. By default, the number of vcores is set to the number of slots per TaskManager, if set, or to 1, otherwise. In order for this parameter to be used your cluster must have CPU scheduling enabled. You can do this by setting the `org.apache.hadoop.yarn.server.resourcemanager.scheduler.fair.FairScheduler`.
yarn.file-replication	-1	Integer	Number of file replication of each local resource file. If it is not configured, Flink will use the default replication value in hadoop configuration.
yarn.flink-dist-jar	(none)	String	The location of the Flink dist jar.
yarn.heartbeat.container-request-interval	500	Integer	Time between heartbeats with the ResourceManager in milliseconds if Flink requests containers: The lower this value is, the faster Flink will get notified about container allocations since requests and allocations are transmitted via heartbeats. The lower this value is, the more excessive containers might get allocated which will eventually be released but put pressure on Yarn. If you observe too many container allocations on the ResourceManager, then it is recommended to increase this value. See this link for more information.
yarn.heartbeat.interval	5	Integer	Time between heartbeats with the ResourceManager in seconds.
yarn.modify.acls	(none)	String	Users and groups to give MODIFY access. The ACLs are of for comma-separated-users<space>comma-separated-groups. Wildcard ACL is also supported. The only valid wildcard ACL is *, which grants permission to all users and groups.

This configuration parameter allows changing the default location of that file (for example for environments sharing a Flink installation between users).
yarn.provided.lib.dirs	(none)	List<String>	A semicolon-separated list of provided lib directories. They should be pre-uploaded and world-readable. Flink will use them to exclude the local Flink jars(e.g. flink-dist, lib/, plugins/)uploading to accelerate the job submission process. Also YARN will cache them on the nodes so that they doesn't need to be downloaded every time for each application. An example could be hdfs://$namenode_address/path/of/flink/lib
yarn.provided.usrlib.dir	(none)	String	The provided usrlib directory in remote. It should be pre-uploaded and world-readable. Flink will use it to exclude the local usrlib directory(i.e. usrlib/ under the parent directory of FLINK_LIB_DIR). Unlike yarn.provided.lib.dirs, YARN will not cache it on the nodes as it is for each application. An example could be hdfs://$namenode_address/path/of/flink/usrlib
yarn.security.kerberos.localized-keytab-path	"krb5.keytab"	String	Local (on NodeManager) path where kerberos keytab file will be localized to. If yarn.security.kerberos.ship-local-keytab set to true, Flink will ship the keytab file as a YARN local resource. In this case, the path is relative to the local resource directory. If set to false, Flink will try to directly locate the keytab from the path itself.

state.backend.rocksdb.memory.fixed-per-tm	(none)	MemorySize	The fixed total amount of memory, shared among all RocksDB instances per Task Manager (cluster-level option). This option only takes effect if neither 'state.backend.rocksdb.memory.managed' nor 'state.backend.rocksdb.memory.fixed-per-slot' are not configured. If none is configured then each RocksDB column family state has its own memory caches (as controlled by the column family options). The relevant options for the shared resources (e.g. write-buffer-ratio) can be set on the same level (flink-conf.yaml).Note, that this feature breaks resource isolation between the slots
state.backend.rocksdb.memory.high-prio-pool-ratio	0.1	Double	The fraction of cache memory that is reserved for high-priority data like index, filter, and compression dictionary blocks. This option only has an effect when 'state.backend.rocksdb.memory.managed' or 'state.backend.rocksdb.memory.fixed-per-slot' are configured.
state.backend.rocksdb.memory.managed	true	Boolean	If set, the RocksDB state backend will automatically configure itself to use the managed memory budget of the task slot, and divide the memory over write buffers, indexes, block caches, etc. That way, the three major uses of memory of RocksDB will be capped.

When reading an index/filter, only top-level index is loaded into memory. The partitioned index/filter then uses the top-level index to load on demand into the block cache the partitions that are required to perform the index/filter query. This option only has an effect when 'state.backend.rocksdb.memory.managed' or 'state.backend.rocksdb.memory.fixed-per-slot' are configured.
state.backend.rocksdb.memory.write-buffer-ratio	0.5	Double	The maximum amount of memory that write buffers may take, as a fraction of the total shared memory. This option only has an effect when 'state.backend.rocksdb.memory.managed' or 'state.backend.rocksdb.memory.fixed-per-slot' are configured.

RocksDB Native Metrics #

Flink can report metrics from RocksDB’s native code, for applications using the RocksDB state backend. The metrics here are scoped to the operators with unsigned longs and have two kinds of types：

RocksDB property-based metrics, which is broken down by column family, e.g. number of currently running compactions of one specific column family.
RocksDB statistics-based metrics, which holds at the database level, e.g. total block cache hit count within the DB.

Enabling RocksDB’s native metrics may cause degraded performance and should be set carefully.

History Server #

The history server keeps the information of completed jobs (graphs, runtimes, statistics). To enable it, you have to enable “job archiving” in the JobManager (jobmanager.archive.fs.dir).

See the History Server Docs for details.

Key	Default	Type	Description
historyserver.archive.clean-expired-jobs	false	Boolean	Whether HistoryServer should cleanup jobs that are no longer present `historyserver.archive.fs.dir`.
historyserver.archive.fs.dir	(none)	String	Comma separated list of directories to fetch archived jobs from. The history server will monitor these directories for archived jobs. You can configure the JobManager to archive jobs to a directory via `jobmanager.archive.fs.dir`.
historyserver.archive.fs.refresh-interval	10000	Long	Interval in milliseconds for refreshing the archived job directories.
historyserver.archive.retained-jobs	-1	Integer	The maximum number of jobs to retain in each archive directory defined by `historyserver.archive.fs.dir`. If set to `-1`(default), there is no limit to the number of archives. If set to `0` or less than `-1` HistoryServer will throw an `IllegalConfigurationException`.
historyserver.log.jobmanager.url-pattern	(none)	String	Pattern of the log URL of JobManager. The HistoryServer will generate actual URLs from it, with replacing the special placeholders, `<jobid>`, to the id of job. Only http / https schemes are supported.
historyserver.log.taskmanager.url-pattern	(none)	String	Pattern of the log URL of TaskManager. The HistoryServer will generate actual URLs from it, with replacing the special placeholders, `<jobid>` and `<tmid>`, to the id of job and TaskManager respectively. Only http / https schemes are supported.
historyserver.web.address	(none)	String	Address of the HistoryServer's web interface.
historyserver.web.port	8082	Integer	Port of the HistoryServers's web interface.
historyserver.web.refresh-interval	10000	Long	The refresh interval for the HistoryServer web-frontend in milliseconds.
historyserver.web.ssl.enabled	false	Boolean	Enable HTTPs access to the HistoryServer web frontend. This is applicable only when the global SSL flag security.ssl.enabled is set to true.
historyserver.web.tmpdir	(none)	String	Local directory that is used by the history server REST API for temporary files.

Experimental #

Options for experimental features in Flink.

Client #

Key	Default	Type	Description
client.heartbeat.interval	30000	Long	Time interval for job client to report its heartbeat when 'execution.attached' and 'execution.shutdown-on-attached-exit' are both true. Cancel the job if timeout configured by 'client.heartbeat.timeout'.
client.heartbeat.timeout	180000	Long	Cancel the job if the dispatcher hasn't received the client's heartbeat after timeout when 'execution.attached' and 'execution.shutdown-on-attached-exit' are both true.
client.retry-period	2 s	Duration	The interval (in ms) between consecutive retries of failed attempts to execute commands through the CLI or Flink's clients, wherever retry is supported (default 2sec).
client.timeout	1 min	Duration	Timeout on the client side.

Execution #

Key	Default	Type	Description
execution.attached	false	Boolean	Specifies if the pipeline is submitted in attached or detached mode.
execution.job-listeners	(none)	List<String>	Custom JobListeners to be registered with the execution environment. The registered listeners cannot have constructors with arguments.
execution.program-config.enabled	true	Boolean	Determines whether configurations in the user program are allowed. By default, configuration can be set both on a cluster-level (via options) or within the user program (i.e. programmatic via environment setters). If disabled, all configuration must be defined on a cluster-level and programmatic setters in the user program are prohibited. Depending on your deployment mode failing the job might have different implications. Either your client that is trying to submit the job to an external cluster (session cluster deployment) throws the exception or the job manager (application mode deployment). The 'execution.program-config.wildcards' option lists configuration keys that are allowed to be set in user programs regardless of this setting.
execution.program-config.wildcards		List<String>	List of configuration keys that are allowed to be set in a user program regardless whether program configuration is enabled or not. Currently changes that are not backed by the Configuration class are always allowed.
execution.shutdown-on-application-finish	true	Boolean	Whether a Flink Application cluster should shut down automatically after its application finishes (either successfully or as result of a failure). Has no effect for other deployment modes.
execution.shutdown-on-attached-exit	false	Boolean	If the job is submitted in attached mode, perform a best-effort cluster shutdown when the CLI is terminated abruptly, e.g., in response to a user interrupt, such as typing Ctrl + C.
execution.submit-failed-job-on-application-error	false	Boolean	If a failed job should be submitted (in the application mode) when there is an error in the application driver before an actual job submission. This is intended for providing a clean way of reporting failures back to the user and is especially useful in combination with 'execution.shutdown-on-application-finish'. This option only works when the single job submission is enforced ('high-availability.type' is enabled). Please note that this is an experimental option and may be changed in the future.
execution.target	(none)	String	The deployment target for the execution. This can take one of the following values when calling `bin/flink run`: remote local yarn-per-job (deprecated) yarn-session kubernetes-session And one of the following values when calling `bin/flink run-application`: yarn-application kubernetes-application

Key	Default	Type	Description
execution.savepoint-restore-mode	NO_CLAIM	Enum	Describes the mode how Flink should restore from the given savepoint or retained checkpoint. Possible values: "CLAIM": Flink will take ownership of the given snapshot. It will clean the snapshot once it is subsumed by newer ones. "NO_CLAIM": Flink will not claim ownership of the snapshot files. However it will make sure it does not depend on any artefacts from the restored snapshot. In order to do that, Flink will take the first checkpoint as a full one, which means it might reupload/duplicate files that are part of the restored checkpoint. "LEGACY": This is the mode in which Flink worked so far. It will not claim ownership of the snapshot and will not delete the files. However, it can directly depend on the existence of the files of the restored checkpoint. It might not be safe to delete checkpoints that were restored in legacy mode
execution.savepoint.ignore-unclaimed-state	false	Boolean	Allow to skip savepoint state that cannot be restored. Allow this if you removed an operator from your pipeline after the savepoint was triggered.
execution.savepoint.path	(none)	String	Path to a savepoint to restore the job from (for example hdfs:///flink/savepoint-1537).

Key	Default	Type	Description
execution.batch-shuffle-mode	ALL_EXCHANGES_BLOCKING	Enum	Defines how data is exchanged between tasks in batch 'execution.runtime-mode' if the shuffling behavior has not been set explicitly for an individual exchange. With pipelined exchanges, upstream and downstream tasks run simultaneously. In order to achieve lower latency, a result record is immediately sent to and processed by the downstream task. Thus, the receiver back-pressures the sender. The streaming mode always uses this exchange. With blocking exchanges, upstream and downstream tasks run in stages. Records are persisted to some storage between stages. Downstream tasks then fetch these records after the upstream tasks finished. Such an exchange reduces the resources required to execute the job as it does not need to run upstream and downstream tasks simultaneously. With hybrid exchanges (experimental), downstream tasks can run anytime as long as upstream tasks start running. When given sufficient resources, it can reduce the overall job execution time by running tasks simultaneously. Otherwise, it also allows jobs to be executed with very little resources. It adapts to custom preferences between persisting less data and restarting less tasks on failures, by providing different spilling strategies. Possible values: "ALL_EXCHANGES_PIPELINED": Upstream and downstream tasks run simultaneously. This leads to lower latency and more evenly distributed (but higher) resource usage across tasks. "ALL_EXCHANGES_BLOCKING": Upstream and downstream tasks run subsequently. This reduces the resource usage as downstream tasks are started after upstream tasks finished. "ALL_EXCHANGES_HYBRID_FULL": Downstream can start running anytime, as long as the upstream has started. This adapts the resource usage to whatever is available. This type will spill all data to disk to support re-consume. "ALL_EXCHANGES_HYBRID_SELECTIVE": Downstream can start running anytime, as long as the upstream has started. This adapts the resource usage to whatever is available. This type will selective spilling data to reduce disk writes as much as possible.
execution.buffer-timeout.enabled	true	Boolean	If disabled, the config execution.buffer-timeout.interval will not take effect and the flushing will be triggered only when the output buffer is full thus maximizing throughput
execution.buffer-timeout.interval	100 ms	Duration	The maximum time frequency (milliseconds) for the flushing of the output buffers. By default the output buffers flush frequently to provide low latency and to aid smooth developer experience. Setting the parameter can result in three logical modes: A positive value triggers flushing periodically by that interval 0 triggers flushing after every record thus minimizing latency If the config execution.buffer-timeout.enabled is false, trigger flushing only when the output buffer is full thus maximizing throughput
execution.checkpointing.snapshot-compression	false	Boolean	Tells if we should use compression for the state snapshot data or not
execution.runtime-mode	STREAMING	Enum	Runtime execution mode of DataStream programs. Among other things, this controls task scheduling, network shuffle behavior, and time semantics. Possible values: "STREAMING" "BATCH" "AUTOMATIC"

Pipeline #

Key	Default	Type	Description
pipeline.auto-generate-uids	true	Boolean	When auto-generated UIDs are disabled, users are forced to manually specify UIDs on DataStream applications. It is highly recommended that users specify UIDs before deploying to production since they are used to match state in savepoints to operators in a job. Because auto-generated ID's are likely to change when modifying a job, specifying custom IDs allow an application to evolve over time without discarding state.
pipeline.auto-watermark-interval	200 ms	Duration	The interval of the automatic watermark emission. Watermarks are used throughout the streaming system to keep track of the progress of time. They are used, for example, for time based windowing.
pipeline.cached-files	(none)	List<String>	Files to be registered at the distributed cache under the given name. The files will be accessible from any user-defined function in the (distributed) runtime under a local path. Files may be local files (which will be distributed via BlobServer), or files in a distributed file system. The runtime will copy the files temporarily to a local cache, if needed. Example: `name:file1,path:'file:///tmp/file1';name:file2,path:'hdfs:///tmp/file2'`
pipeline.classpaths	(none)	List<String>	A semicolon-separated list of the classpaths to package with the job jars to be sent to the cluster. These have to be valid URLs.
pipeline.closure-cleaner-level	RECURSIVE	Enum	Configures the mode in which the closure cleaner works. Possible values: "NONE": Disables the closure cleaner completely. "TOP_LEVEL": Cleans only the top-level class without recursing into fields. "RECURSIVE": Cleans all fields recursively.
pipeline.default-kryo-serializers	(none)	List<String>	Semicolon separated list of pairs of class names and Kryo serializers class names to be used as Kryo default serializers Example: `class:org.example.ExampleClass,serializer:org.example.ExampleSerializer1; class:org.example.ExampleClass2,serializer:org.example.ExampleSerializer2`
pipeline.force-avro	false	Boolean	Forces Flink to use the Apache Avro serializer for POJOs. Important: Make sure to include the `flink-avro` module.
pipeline.force-kryo	false	Boolean	If enabled, forces TypeExtractor to use Kryo serializer for POJOS even though we could analyze as POJO. In some cases this might be preferable. For example, when using interfaces with subclasses that cannot be analyzed as POJO.
pipeline.generic-types	true	Boolean	If the use of generic types is disabled, Flink will throw an `UnsupportedOperationException` whenever it encounters a data type that would go through Kryo for serialization. Disabling generic types can be helpful to eagerly find and eliminate the use of types that would go through Kryo serialization during runtime. Rather than checking types individually, using this option will throw exceptions eagerly in the places where generic types are used. We recommend to use this option only during development and pre-production phases, not during actual production use. The application program and/or the input data may be such that new, previously unseen, types occur at some point. In that case, setting this option would cause the program to fail.
pipeline.global-job-parameters	(none)	Map	Register a custom, serializable user configuration object. The configuration can be accessed in operators
pipeline.jars	(none)	List<String>	A semicolon-separated list of the jars to package with the job jars to be sent to the cluster. These have to be valid paths.
pipeline.jobvertex-parallelism-overrides		Map	A parallelism override map (jobVertexId -> parallelism) which will be used to update the parallelism of the corresponding job vertices of submitted JobGraphs.
pipeline.max-parallelism	-1	Integer	The program-wide maximum parallelism used for operators which haven't specified a maximum parallelism. The maximum parallelism specifies the upper limit for dynamic scaling and the number of key groups used for partitioned state. Changing the value explicitly when recovery from original job will lead to state incompatibility. Must be less than or equal to 32768.
pipeline.name	(none)	String	The job name used for printing and logging.
pipeline.object-reuse	false	Boolean	When enabled objects that Flink internally uses for deserialization and passing data to user-code functions will be reused. Keep in mind that this can lead to bugs when the user-code function of an operation is not aware of this behaviour.
pipeline.operator-chaining.chain-operators-with-different-max-parallelism	true	Boolean	Operators with different max parallelism can be chained together. Default behavior may prevent rescaling when the AdaptiveScheduler is used.
pipeline.operator-chaining.enabled	true	Boolean	Operator chaining allows non-shuffle operations to be co-located in the same thread fully avoiding serialization and de-serialization.
pipeline.registered-kryo-types	(none)	List<String>	Semicolon separated list of types to be registered with the serialization stack. If the type is eventually serialized as a POJO, then the type is registered with the POJO serializer. If the type ends up being serialized with Kryo, then it will be registered at Kryo to make sure that only tags are written.
pipeline.registered-pojo-types	(none)	List<String>	Semicolon separated list of types to be registered with the serialization stack. If the type is eventually serialized as a POJO, then the type is registered with the POJO serializer. If the type ends up being serialized with Kryo, then it will be registered at Kryo to make sure that only tags are written.
pipeline.vertex-description-mode	TREE	Enum	The mode how we organize description of a job vertex. Possible values: "TREE" "CASCADING"
pipeline.vertex-name-include-index-prefix	false	Boolean	Whether name of vertex includes topological index or not. When it is true, the name will have a prefix of index of the vertex, like '[vertex-0]Source: source'. It is false by default
pipeline.watermark-alignment.allow-unaligned-source-splits	false	Boolean	If watermark alignment is used, sources with multiple splits will attempt to pause/resume split readers to avoid watermark drift of source splits. However, if split readers don't support pause/resume, an UnsupportedOperationException will be thrown when there is an attempt to pause/resume. To allow use of split readers that don't support pause/resume and, hence, to allow unaligned splits while still using watermark alignment, set this parameter to true. The default value is false. Note: This parameter may be removed in future releases.

Key	Default	Type	Description
pipeline.time-characteristic	ProcessingTime	Enum	The time characteristic for all created streams, e.g., processingtime, event time, or ingestion time. If you set the characteristic to IngestionTime or EventTime this will set a default watermark update interval of 200 ms. If this is not applicable for your application you should change it using `pipeline.auto-watermark-interval`. Possible values: "ProcessingTime" "IngestionTime" "EventTime"

Checkpointing #

Key	Default	Type	Description
execution.checkpointing.aligned-checkpoint-timeout	0 ms	Duration	Only relevant if `execution.checkpointing.unaligned.enabled` is enabled. If timeout is 0, checkpoints will always start unaligned. If timeout has a positive value, checkpoints will start aligned. If during checkpointing, checkpoint start delay exceeds this timeout, alignment will timeout and checkpoint barrier will start working as unaligned checkpoint.
execution.checkpointing.checkpoints-after-tasks-finish.enabled	true	Boolean	Feature toggle for enabling checkpointing even if some of tasks have finished. Before you enable it, please take a look at the important considerations
execution.checkpointing.externalized-checkpoint-retention	NO_EXTERNALIZED_CHECKPOINTS	Enum	Externalized checkpoints write their meta data out to persistent storage and are not automatically cleaned up when the owning job fails or is suspended (terminating with job status `JobStatus#FAILED` or `JobStatus#SUSPENDED`). In this case, you have to manually clean up the checkpoint state, both the meta data and actual program state. The mode defines how an externalized checkpoint should be cleaned up on job cancellation. If you choose to retain externalized checkpoints on cancellation you have to handle checkpoint clean up manually when you cancel the job as well (terminating with job status `JobStatus#CANCELED`). The target directory for externalized checkpoints is configured via `state.checkpoints.dir`. Possible values: "DELETE_ON_CANCELLATION": Checkpoint state is only kept when the owning job fails. It is deleted if the job is cancelled. "RETAIN_ON_CANCELLATION": Checkpoint state is kept when the owning job is cancelled or fails. "NO_EXTERNALIZED_CHECKPOINTS": Externalized checkpoints are disabled.
execution.checkpointing.interval	(none)	Duration	Gets the interval in which checkpoints are periodically scheduled. This setting defines the base interval. Checkpoint triggering may be delayed by the settings `execution.checkpointing.max-concurrent-checkpoints` and `execution.checkpointing.min-pause`
execution.checkpointing.max-concurrent-checkpoints	1	Integer	The maximum number of checkpoint attempts that may be in progress at the same time. If this value is n, then no checkpoints will be triggered while n checkpoint attempts are currently in flight. For the next checkpoint to be triggered, one checkpoint attempt would need to finish or expire.
execution.checkpointing.min-pause	0 ms	Duration	The minimal pause between checkpointing attempts. This setting defines how soon thecheckpoint coordinator may trigger another checkpoint after it becomes possible to triggeranother checkpoint with respect to the maximum number of concurrent checkpoints(see `execution.checkpointing.max-concurrent-checkpoints`). If the maximum number of concurrent checkpoints is set to one, this setting makes effectively sure that a minimum amount of time passes where no checkpoint is in progress at all.
execution.checkpointing.mode	EXACTLY_ONCE	Enum	The checkpointing mode (exactly-once vs. at-least-once). Possible values: "EXACTLY_ONCE" "AT_LEAST_ONCE"
execution.checkpointing.recover-without-channel-state.checkpoint-id	-1	Long	Checkpoint id for which in-flight data should be ignored in case of the recovery from this checkpoint. It is better to keep this value empty until there is explicit needs to restore from the specific checkpoint without in-flight data.
execution.checkpointing.timeout	10 min	Duration	The maximum time that a checkpoint may take before being discarded.
execution.checkpointing.tolerable-failed-checkpoints	(none)	Integer	The tolerable checkpoint consecutive failure number. If set to 0, that means we do not tolerance any checkpoint failure. This only applies to the following failure reasons: IOException on the Job Manager, failures in the async phase on the Task Managers and checkpoint expiration due to a timeout. Failures originating from the sync phase on the Task Managers are always forcing failover of an affected task. Other types of checkpoint failures (such as checkpoint being subsumed) are being ignored.
execution.checkpointing.unaligned.enabled	false	Boolean	Enables unaligned checkpoints, which greatly reduce checkpointing times under backpressure. Unaligned checkpoints contain data stored in buffers as part of the checkpoint state, which allows checkpoint barriers to overtake these buffers. Thus, the checkpoint duration becomes independent of the current throughput as checkpoint barriers are effectively not embedded into the stream of data anymore. Unaligned checkpoints can only be enabled if `execution.checkpointing.mode` is `EXACTLY_ONCE` and if `execution.checkpointing.max-concurrent-checkpoints` is 1
execution.checkpointing.unaligned.forced	false	Boolean	Forces unaligned checkpoints, particularly allowing them for iterative jobs.
execution.checkpointing.unaligned.max-subtasks-per-channel-state-file	5	Integer	Defines the maximum number of subtasks that share the same channel state file. It can reduce the number of small files when enable unaligned checkpoint. Each subtask will create a new channel state file when this is configured to 1.

Debugging & Expert Tuning #

The options below here are meant for expert users and for fixing/debugging problems. Most setups should not need to configure these options.

Class Loading #

Flink dynamically loads the code for jobs submitted to a session cluster. In addition, Flink tries to hide many dependencies in the classpath from the application. This helps to reduce dependency conflicts between the application code and the dependencies in the classpath.

Please refer to the Debugging Classloading Docs for details.

Key	Default	Type	Description
classloader.check-leaked-classloader	true	Boolean	Fails attempts at loading classes if the user classloader of a job is used after it has terminated. This is usually caused by the classloader being leaked by lingering threads or misbehaving libraries, which may also result in the classloader being used by other jobs. This check should only be disabled if such a leak prevents further jobs from running.
classloader.fail-on-metaspace-oom-error	true	Boolean	Fail Flink JVM processes if 'OutOfMemoryError: Metaspace' is thrown while trying to load a user code class.
classloader.parent-first-patterns.additional		List<String>	A (semicolon-separated) list of patterns that specifies which classes should always be resolved through the parent ClassLoader first. A pattern is a simple prefix that is checked against the fully qualified class name. These patterns are appended to "classloader.parent-first-patterns.default".
classloader.parent-first-patterns.default	"java.";"scala.";"org.apache.flink.";"com.esotericsoftware.kryo";"org.apache.hadoop.";"javax.annotation.";"org.xml";"javax.xml";"org.apache.xerces";"org.w3c";"org.rocksdb.";"org.slf4j";"org.apache.log4j";"org.apache.logging";"org.apache.commons.logging";"ch.qos.logback"	List<String>	A (semicolon-separated) list of patterns that specifies which classes should always be resolved through the parent ClassLoader first. A pattern is a simple prefix that is checked against the fully qualified class name. This setting should generally not be modified. To add another pattern we recommend to use "classloader.parent-first-patterns.additional" instead.
classloader.resolve-order	"child-first"	String	Defines the class resolution strategy when loading classes from user code, meaning whether to first check the user code jar ("child-first") or the application classpath ("parent-first"). The default settings indicate to load classes first from the user code jar, which means that user code jars can include and load different dependencies than Flink uses (transitively).

Advanced Options for the debugging #

Key	Default	Type	Description
jmx.server.port	(none)	String	The port range for the JMX server to start the registry. The port config can be a single port: "9123", a range of ports: "50100-50200", or a list of ranges and ports: "50100-50200,50300-50400,51234". This option overrides metrics.reporter.*.port option.

Advanced State Backends Options #

Key	Default	Type	Description
state.storage.fs.memory-threshold	20 kb	MemorySize	The minimum size of state data files. All state chunks smaller than that are stored inline in the root checkpoint metadata file. The max memory threshold for this configuration is 1MB.
state.storage.fs.write-buffer-size	4096	Integer	The default size of the write buffer for the checkpoint streams that write to file systems. The actual write buffer size is determined to be the maximum of the value of this option and option 'state.storage.fs.memory-threshold'.

State Backends Latency Tracking Options #

Key	Default	Type	Description
state.backend.latency-track.history-size	128	Integer	Defines the number of measured latencies to maintain at each state access operation.
state.backend.latency-track.keyed-state-enabled	false	Boolean	Whether to track latency of keyed state operations, e.g value state put/get/clear.
state.backend.latency-track.sample-interval	100	Integer	The sample interval of latency track once 'state.backend.latency-track.keyed-state-enabled' is enabled. The default value is 100, which means we would track the latency every 100 access requests.
state.backend.latency-track.state-name-as-variable	true	Boolean	Whether to expose state name as a variable if tracking latency.

Advanced RocksDB State Backends Options #

Advanced options to tune RocksDB and RocksDB checkpoints.

Key	Default	Type	Description

state.backend.rocksdb.localdir	(none)	String	The local directory (on the TaskManager) where RocksDB puts its files. Per default, it will be <WORKING_DIR>/tmp. See `process.taskmanager.working-dir` for more details.
state.backend.rocksdb.options-factory	(none)	String	The options factory class for users to add customized options in DBOptions and ColumnFamilyOptions for RocksDB. If set, the RocksDB state backend will load the class and apply configs to DBOptions and ColumnFamilyOptions after loading ones from 'RocksDBConfigurableOptions' and pre-defined options.
state.backend.rocksdb.predefined-options	"DEFAULT"	String	The predefined settings for RocksDB DBOptions and ColumnFamilyOptions by Flink community. Current supported candidate predefined-options are DEFAULT, SPINNING_DISK_OPTIMIZED, SPINNING_DISK_OPTIMIZED_HIGH_MEM or FLASH_SSD_OPTIMIZED. Note that user customized options and options from the RocksDBOptionsFactory are applied on top of these predefined ones.

State Changelog Options #

Please refer to State Backends for information on using State Changelog.

The feature is in experimental status.

Key	Default	Type	Description
state.backend.changelog.enabled	false	Boolean	Whether to enable state backend to write state changes to StateChangelog. If this config is not set explicitly, it means no preference for enabling the change log, and the value in lower config level will take effect. The default value 'false' here means if no value set (job or cluster), the change log will not be enabled.
state.backend.changelog.max-failures-allowed	3	Integer	Max number of consecutive materialization failures allowed.
state.backend.changelog.periodic-materialize.interval	10 min	Duration	Defines the interval in milliseconds to perform periodic materialization for state backend. The periodic materialization will be disabled when the value is negative
state.backend.changelog.storage	"memory"	String	The storage to be used to store state changelog. The implementation can be specified via their shortcut name. The list of recognized shortcut names currently includes 'memory' and 'filesystem'.

FileSystem-based Changelog options #

These settings take effect when the state.backend.changelog.storage is set to filesystem (see above).

Key	Default	Type	Description
dstl.dfs.base-path	(none)	String	Base path to store changelog files.
dstl.dfs.batch.persist-delay	10 ms	Duration	Delay before persisting changelog after receiving persist request (on checkpoint). Minimizes the number of files and requests if multiple operators (backends) or sub-tasks are using the same store. Correspondingly increases checkpoint time (async phase).
dstl.dfs.batch.persist-size-threshold	10 mb	MemorySize	Size threshold for state changes that were requested to be persisted but are waiting for dstl.dfs.batch.persist-delay (from all operators). . Once reached, accumulated changes are persisted immediately. This is different from dstl.dfs.preemptive-persist-threshold as it happens AFTER the checkpoint and potentially for state changes of multiple operators. Must not exceed in-flight data limit (see below)
dstl.dfs.compression.enabled	false	Boolean	Whether to enable compression when serializing changelog.
dstl.dfs.discard.num-threads	1	Integer	Number of threads to use to discard changelog (e.g. pre-emptively uploaded unused state).

dstl.dfs.preemptive-persist-threshold	5 mb	MemorySize	Size threshold for state changes of a single operator beyond which they are persisted pre-emptively without waiting for a checkpoint. Improves checkpointing time by allowing quasi-continuous uploading of state changes (as opposed to uploading all accumulated changes on checkpoint).
dstl.dfs.upload.buffer-size	1 mb	MemorySize	Buffer size used when uploading change sets
dstl.dfs.upload.max-attempts	3	Integer	Maximum number of attempts (including the initial one) to perform a particular upload. Only takes effect if dstl.dfs.upload.retry-policy is fixed.
dstl.dfs.upload.max-in-flight	100 mb	MemorySize	Max amount of data allowed to be in-flight. Upon reaching this limit the task will be back-pressured. I.e., snapshotting will block; normal processing will block if dstl.dfs.preemptive-persist-threshold is set and reached. The limit is applied to the total size of in-flight changes if multiple operators/backends are using the same changelog storage. Must be greater than or equal to dstl.dfs.batch.persist-size-threshold
dstl.dfs.upload.next-attempt-delay	500 ms	Duration	Delay before the next attempt (if the failure was not caused by a timeout).
dstl.dfs.upload.num-threads	5	Integer	Number of threads to use for upload.
dstl.dfs.upload.retry-policy	"fixed"	String	Retry policy for the failed uploads (in particular, timed out). Valid values: none, fixed.
dstl.dfs.upload.timeout	1 s	Duration	Time threshold beyond which an upload is considered timed out. If a new attempt is made but this upload succeeds earlier then this upload result will be used. May improve upload times if tail latencies of upload requests are significantly high. Only takes effect if dstl.dfs.upload.retry-policy is fixed. Please note that timeout * max_attempts should be less than execution.checkpointing.timeout

RocksDB Configurable Options

These options give fine-grained control over the behavior and resources of ColumnFamilies. With the introduction of state.backend.rocksdb.memory.managed and state.backend.rocksdb.memory.fixed-per-slot (Apache Flink 1.10), it should be only necessary to use the options here for advanced performance tuning. These options here can also be specified in the application program via RocksDBStateBackend.setRocksDBOptions(RocksDBOptionsFactory).

Key	Default	Type	Description
state.backend.rocksdb.block.blocksize	4 kb	MemorySize	The approximate size (in bytes) of user data packed per block. The default blocksize is '4KB'.
state.backend.rocksdb.block.cache-size	8 mb	MemorySize	The amount of the cache for data blocks in RocksDB. The default block-cache size is '8MB'.
state.backend.rocksdb.block.metadata-blocksize	4 kb	MemorySize	Approximate size of partitioned metadata packed per block. Currently applied to indexes block when partitioned index/filters option is enabled. The default blocksize is '4KB'.
state.backend.rocksdb.bloom-filter.bits-per-key	10.0	Double	Bits per key that bloom filter will use, this only take effect when bloom filter is used. The default value is 10.0.

state.backend.rocksdb.compaction.level.max-size-level-base	256 mb	MemorySize	The upper-bound of the total size of level base files in bytes. The default value is '256MB'.
state.backend.rocksdb.compaction.level.target-file-size-base	64 mb	MemorySize	The target file size for compaction, which determines a level-1 file size. The default value is '64MB'.
state.backend.rocksdb.compaction.level.use-dynamic-size	false	Boolean	If true, RocksDB will pick target size of each level dynamically. From an empty DB, RocksDB would make last level the base level, which means merging L0 data into the last level, until it exceeds max_bytes_for_level_base. And then repeat this process for second last level and so on. The default value is 'false'. For more information, please refer to RocksDB's doc.
state.backend.rocksdb.compaction.style	LEVEL	Enum	The specified compaction style for DB. Candidate compaction style is LEVEL, FIFO, UNIVERSAL or NONE, and Flink chooses 'LEVEL' as default style. Possible values: "LEVEL" "UNIVERSAL" "FIFO" "NONE"
state.backend.rocksdb.files.open	-1	Integer	The maximum number of open files (per stateful operator) that can be used by the DB, '-1' means no limit. The default value is '-1'.
state.backend.rocksdb.log.dir	(none)	String	The directory for RocksDB's information logging files. If empty (Flink default setting), log files will be in the same directory as the Flink log. If non-empty, this directory will be used and the data directory's absolute path will be used as the prefix of the log file name. If setting this option as a non-existing location, e.g '/dev/null', RocksDB will then create the log under its own database folder as before.
state.backend.rocksdb.log.file-num	4	Integer	The maximum number of files RocksDB should keep for information logging (Default setting: 4).
state.backend.rocksdb.log.level	INFO_LEVEL	Enum	The specified information logging level for RocksDB. If unset, Flink will use `INFO_LEVEL`. Note: RocksDB info logs will not be written to the TaskManager logs and there is no rolling strategy, unless you configure `state.backend.rocksdb.log.dir`, `state.backend.rocksdb.log.max-file-size`, and `state.backend.rocksdb.log.file-num` accordingly. Without a rolling strategy, long-running tasks may lead to uncontrolled disk space usage if configured with increased log levels! There is no need to modify the RocksDB log level, unless for troubleshooting RocksDB. Possible values: "DEBUG_LEVEL" "INFO_LEVEL" "WARN_LEVEL" "ERROR_LEVEL" "FATAL_LEVEL" "HEADER_LEVEL" "NUM_INFO_LOG_LEVELS"
state.backend.rocksdb.log.max-file-size	25 mb	MemorySize	The maximum size of RocksDB's file used for information logging. If the log files becomes larger than this, a new file will be created. If 0, all logs will be written to one log file. The default maximum file size is '25MB'.
state.backend.rocksdb.restore-overlap-fraction-threshold	0.0	Double	The threshold of overlap fraction between the handle's key-group range and target key-group range. When restore base DB, only the handle which overlap fraction greater than or equal to threshold has a chance to be an initial handle. The default value is 0.0, there is always a handle will be selected for initialization.
state.backend.rocksdb.thread.num	2	Integer	The maximum number of concurrent background flush and compaction jobs (per stateful operator). The default value is '2'.
state.backend.rocksdb.use-bloom-filter	false	Boolean	If true, every newly created SST file will contain a Bloom filter. It is disabled by default.
state.backend.rocksdb.write-batch-size	2 mb	MemorySize	The max size of the consumed memory for RocksDB batch write, will flush just based on item count if this config set to 0.
state.backend.rocksdb.writebuffer.count	2	Integer	The maximum number of write buffers that are built up in memory. The default value is '2'.
state.backend.rocksdb.writebuffer.number-to-merge	1	Integer	The minimum number of write buffers that will be merged together before writing to storage. The default value is '1'.
state.backend.rocksdb.writebuffer.size	64 mb	MemorySize	The amount of data built up in memory (backed by an unsorted log on disk) before converting to a sorted on-disk files. The default writebuffer size is '64MB'.

Advanced Fault Tolerance Options #

These parameters can help with problems related to failover and to components erroneously considering each other as failed.

Key	Default	Type	Description
cluster.io-pool.size	(none)	Integer	The size of the IO executor pool used by the cluster to execute blocking IO operations (Master as well as TaskManager processes). By default it will use 4 * the number of CPU cores (hardware contexts) that the cluster process has access to. Increasing the pool size allows to run more IO operations concurrently.
cluster.registration.error-delay	10000	Long	The pause made after an registration attempt caused an exception (other than timeout) in milliseconds.
cluster.registration.initial-timeout	100	Long	Initial registration timeout between cluster components in milliseconds.

cluster.services.shutdown-timeout	30000	Long	The shutdown timeout for cluster services like executors in milliseconds.
heartbeat.interval	10000	Long	Time interval between heartbeat RPC requests from the sender to the receiver side.
heartbeat.rpc-failure-threshold	2	Integer	The number of consecutive failed heartbeat RPCs until a heartbeat target is marked as unreachable. Failed heartbeat RPCs can be used to detect dead targets faster because they no longer receive the RPCs. The detection time is `heartbeat.interval` * `heartbeat.rpc-failure-threshold`. In environments with a flaky network, setting this value too low can produce false positives. In this case, we recommend to increase this value, but not higher than `heartbeat.timeout` / `heartbeat.interval`. The mechanism can be disabled by setting this option to `-1`
heartbeat.timeout	50000	Long	Timeout for requesting and receiving heartbeats for both sender and receiver sides.
jobmanager.execution.failover-strategy	"region"	String	This option specifies how the job computation recovers from task failures. Accepted values are: 'full': Restarts all tasks to recover the job. 'region': Restarts all tasks that could be affected by the task failure. More details can be found here.

Advanced Cluster Options #

Key	Default	Type	Description
cluster.intercept-user-system-exit	DISABLED	Enum	Flag to check user code exiting system by terminating JVM (e.g., System.exit()). Note that this configuration option can interfere with `cluster.processes.halt-on-fatal-error`: In intercepted user-code, a call to System.exit() will not cause the JVM to halt, when `THROW` is configured. Possible values: "DISABLED": Flink is not monitoring or intercepting calls to System.exit() "LOG": Log exit attempt with stack trace but still allowing exit to be performed "THROW": Throw exception when exit is attempted disallowing JVM termination
cluster.processes.halt-on-fatal-error	false	Boolean	Whether processes should halt on fatal errors instead of performing a graceful shutdown. In some environments (e.g. Java 8 with the G1 garbage collector), a regular graceful shutdown can lead to a JVM deadlock. See FLINK-16510 for details.
cluster.thread-dump.stacktrace-max-depth	50	Integer	The maximum stacktrace depth of TaskManager and JobManager's thread dump web-frontend displayed.
cluster.uncaught-exception-handling	LOG	Enum	Defines whether cluster will handle any uncaught exceptions by just logging them (LOG mode), or by failing job (FAIL mode) Possible values: "LOG" "FAIL"
process.jobmanager.working-dir	(none)	String	Working directory for Flink JobManager processes. The working directory can be used to store information that can be used upon process recovery. If not configured, then it will default to `process.working-dir`.
process.taskmanager.working-dir	(none)	String	Working directory for Flink TaskManager processes. The working directory can be used to store information that can be used upon process recovery. If not configured, then it will default to `process.working-dir`.
process.working-dir	io.tmp.dirs	String	Local working directory for Flink processes. The working directory can be used to store information that can be used upon process recovery. If not configured, then it will default to a randomly picked temporary directory defined via `io.tmp.dirs`.

Advanced JobManager Options #

Key	Default	Type	Description
jobmanager.future-pool.size	(none)	Integer	The size of the future thread pool to execute future callbacks for all spawned JobMasters. If no value is specified, then Flink defaults to the number of available CPU cores.
jobmanager.io-pool.size	(none)	Integer	The size of the IO thread pool to run blocking operations for all spawned JobMasters. This includes recovery and completion of checkpoints. Increase this value if you experience slow checkpoint operations when running many jobs. If no value is specified, then Flink defaults to the number of available CPU cores.

Advanced Scheduling Options #

These parameters can help with fine-tuning scheduling for specific situations.

Key	Default	Type	Description
cluster.evenly-spread-out-slots	false	Boolean	Enable the slot spread out allocation strategy. This strategy tries to spread out the slots evenly across all available `TaskExecutors`.
execution.batch.adaptive.auto-parallelism.avg-data-volume-per-task	16 mb	MemorySize	The average size of data volume to expect each task instance to process if `jobmanager.scheduler` has been set to `AdaptiveBatch`. Note that when data skew occurs or the decided parallelism reaches the `execution.batch.adaptive.auto-parallelism.max-parallelism` (due to too much data), the data actually processed by some tasks may far exceed this value.
execution.batch.adaptive.auto-parallelism.default-source-parallelism	1	Integer	The default parallelism of source vertices if `jobmanager.scheduler` has been set to `AdaptiveBatch`
execution.batch.adaptive.auto-parallelism.enabled	true	Boolean	If true, Flink will automatically decide the parallelism of operators in batch jobs.
execution.batch.adaptive.auto-parallelism.max-parallelism	128	Integer	The upper bound of allowed parallelism to set adaptively if `jobmanager.scheduler` has been set to `AdaptiveBatch`
execution.batch.adaptive.auto-parallelism.min-parallelism	1	Integer	The lower bound of allowed parallelism to set adaptively if `jobmanager.scheduler` has been set to `AdaptiveBatch`
execution.batch.speculative.block-slow-node-duration	1 min	Duration	Controls how long an detected slow node should be blocked for.

jobmanager.adaptive-scheduler.min-parallelism-increase	1	Integer	Configure the minimum increase in parallelism for a job to scale up.
jobmanager.adaptive-scheduler.resource-stabilization-timeout	10 s	Duration	The resource stabilization timeout defines the time the JobManager will wait if fewer than the desired but sufficient resources are available. The timeout starts once sufficient resources for running the job are available. Once this timeout has passed, the job will start executing with the available resources. If `scheduler-mode` is configured to `REACTIVE`, this configuration value will default to 0, so that jobs are starting immediately with the available resources.
jobmanager.adaptive-scheduler.resource-wait-timeout	5 min	Duration	The maximum time the JobManager will wait to acquire all required resources after a job submission or restart. Once elapsed it will try to run the job with a lower parallelism, or fail if the minimum amount of resources could not be acquired. Increasing this value will make the cluster more resilient against temporary resources shortages (e.g., there is more time for a failed TaskManager to be restarted). Setting a negative duration will disable the resource timeout: The JobManager will wait indefinitely for resources to appear. If `scheduler-mode` is configured to `REACTIVE`, this configuration value will default to a negative value to disable the resource timeout.
jobmanager.partition.hybrid.partition-data-consume-constraint	(none)	Enum	Controls the constraint that hybrid partition data can be consumed. Note that this option is allowed only when `jobmanager.scheduler` has been set to `AdaptiveBatch`. Accepted values are: '`ALL_PRODUCERS_FINISHED`': hybrid partition data can be consumed only when all producers are finished. '`ONLY_FINISHED_PRODUCERS`': hybrid partition data can be consumed when its producer is finished. '`UNFINISHED_PRODUCERS`': hybrid partition data can be consumed even if its producer is un-finished. Possible values: "ALL_PRODUCERS_FINISHED" "ONLY_FINISHED_PRODUCERS" "UNFINISHED_PRODUCERS"
jobmanager.scheduler	Default	Enum	Determines which scheduler implementation is used to schedule tasks. Accepted values are: 'Default': Default scheduler 'Adaptive': Adaptive scheduler. More details can be found here. 'AdaptiveBatch': Adaptive batch scheduler. More details can be found here. Possible values: "Default" "Adaptive" "AdaptiveBatch"
scheduler-mode	(none)	Enum	Determines the mode of the scheduler. Note that `scheduler-mode`=`REACTIVE` is only supported by standalone application deployments, not by active resource managers (YARN, Kubernetes) or session clusters. Possible values: "REACTIVE"
slot.idle.timeout	50000	Long	The timeout in milliseconds for a idle slot in Slot Pool.
slot.request.timeout	300000	Long	The timeout in milliseconds for requesting a slot from Slot Pool.
slotmanager.max-total-resource.cpu	(none)	Double	Maximum cpu cores the Flink cluster allocates for slots. Resources for JobManager and TaskManager framework are excluded. If not configured, it will be derived from 'slotmanager.number-of-slots.max'.
slotmanager.max-total-resource.memory	(none)	MemorySize	Maximum memory size the Flink cluster allocates for slots. Resources for JobManager and TaskManager framework are excluded. If not configured, it will be derived from 'slotmanager.number-of-slots.max'.
slotmanager.number-of-slots.max	infinite	Integer	Defines the maximum number of slots that the Flink cluster allocates. This configuration option is meant for limiting the resource consumption for batch workloads. It is not recommended to configure this option for streaming workloads, which may fail if there are not enough slots. Note that this configuration option does not take effect for standalone clusters, where how many slots are allocated is not controlled by Flink.
slow-task-detector.check-interval	1 s	Duration	The interval to check slow tasks.
slow-task-detector.execution-time.baseline-lower-bound	1 min	Duration	The lower bound of slow task detection baseline.
slow-task-detector.execution-time.baseline-multiplier	1.5	Double	The multiplier to calculate the slow tasks detection baseline. Given that the parallelism is N and the ratio is R, define T as the median of the first NR finished tasks' execution time. The baseline will be TM, where M is the multiplier of the baseline. Note that the execution time will be weighted with the task's input bytes to ensure the accuracy of the detection if data skew occurs.
slow-task-detector.execution-time.baseline-ratio	0.75	Double	The finished execution ratio threshold to calculate the slow tasks detection baseline. Given that the parallelism is N and the ratio is R, define T as the median of the first NR finished tasks' execution time. The baseline will be TM, where M is the multiplier of the baseline. Note that the execution time will be weighted with the task's input bytes to ensure the accuracy of the detection if data skew occurs.

Advanced High-availability Options #

Key	Default	Type	Description
high-availability.jobmanager.port	"0"	String	The port (range) used by the Flink Master for its RPC connections in highly-available setups. In highly-available setups, this value is used instead of 'jobmanager.rpc.port'.A value of '0' means that a random free port is chosen. TaskManagers discover this port through the high-availability services (leader election), so a random port or a port range works without requiring any additional means of service discovery.

Advanced High-availability ZooKeeper Options #

Key	Default	Type	Description
high-availability.zookeeper.client.acl	"open"	String	Defines the ACL (open\|creator) to be configured on ZK node. The configuration value can be set to “creator” if the ZooKeeper server configuration has the “authProvider” property mapped to use SASLAuthenticationProvider and the cluster is configured to run in secure mode (Kerberos).
high-availability.zookeeper.client.connection-timeout	15000	Integer	Defines the connection timeout for ZooKeeper in ms.
high-availability.zookeeper.client.ensemble-tracker	true	Boolean	Defines whether Curator should enable ensemble tracker. This can be useful in certain scenarios in which CuratorFramework is accessing to ZK clusters via load balancer or Virtual IPs. Default Curator EnsembleTracking logic watches CuratorEventType.GET_CONFIG events and changes ZooKeeper connection string. It is not desired behaviour when ZooKeeper is running under the Virtual IPs. Under certain configurations EnsembleTracking can lead to setting of ZooKeeper connection string with unresolvable hostnames.
high-availability.zookeeper.client.max-retry-attempts	3	Integer	Defines the number of connection retries before the client gives up.
high-availability.zookeeper.client.retry-wait	5000	Integer	Defines the pause between consecutive retries in ms.
high-availability.zookeeper.client.session-timeout	60000	Integer	Defines the session timeout for the ZooKeeper session in ms.
high-availability.zookeeper.client.tolerate-suspended-connections	false	Boolean	Defines whether a suspended ZooKeeper connection will be treated as an error that causes the leader information to be invalidated or not. In case you set this option to `true`, Flink will wait until a ZooKeeper connection is marked as lost before it revokes the leadership of components. This has the effect that Flink is more resilient against temporary connection instabilities at the cost of running more likely into timing issues with ZooKeeper.
high-availability.zookeeper.path.jobgraphs	"/jobgraphs"	String	ZooKeeper root path (ZNode) for job graphs
high-availability.zookeeper.path.running-registry	"/running_job_registry/"	String

Advanced High-availability Kubernetes Options #

Key	Default	Type	Description
high-availability.kubernetes.leader-election.lease-duration	15 s	Duration	Define the lease duration for the Kubernetes leader election. The leader will continuously renew its lease time to indicate its existence. And the followers will do a lease checking against the current time. "renewTime + leaseDuration > now" means the leader is alive.
high-availability.kubernetes.leader-election.renew-deadline	15 s	Duration	Defines the deadline duration when the leader tries to renew the lease. The leader will give up its leadership if it cannot successfully renew the lease in the given time.
high-availability.kubernetes.leader-election.retry-period	5 s	Duration	Defines the pause duration between consecutive retries. All the contenders, including the current leader and all other followers, periodically try to acquire/renew the leadership if possible at this interval.

Advanced SSL Security Options #

Key	Default	Type	Description
security.ssl.internal.close-notify-flush-timeout	-1	Integer	The timeout (in ms) for flushing the `close_notify` that was triggered by closing a channel. If the `close_notify` was not flushed in the given timeout the channel will be closed forcibly. (-1 = use system default)

security.ssl.internal.session-cache-size	-1	Integer	The size of the cache used for storing SSL session objects. According to here, you should always set this to an appropriate number to not run into a bug with stalling IO threads during garbage collection. (-1 = use system default).
security.ssl.internal.session-timeout	-1	Integer	The timeout (in ms) for the cached SSL session objects. (-1 = use system default)
security.ssl.provider	"JDK"	String	The SSL engine provider to use for the ssl transport: `JDK`: default Java-based SSL engine `OPENSSL`: openSSL-based SSL engine using system libraries `OPENSSL` is based on netty-tcnative and comes in two flavours: dynamically linked: This will use your system's openSSL libraries (if compatible) and requires `opt/flink-shaded-netty-tcnative-dynamic-*.jar` to be copied to `lib/` statically linked: Due to potential licensing issues with openSSL (see LEGAL-393), we cannot ship pre-built libraries. However, you can build the required library yourself and put it into `lib/`: `git clone https://github.com/apache/flink-shaded.git && cd flink-shaded && mvn clean package -Pinclude-netty-tcnative-static -pl flink-shaded-netty-tcnative-static`

Key	Default	Type	Description
jobmanager.adaptive-scheduler.min-parallelism-increase	1	Integer	Configure the minimum increase in parallelism for a job to scale up.
jobmanager.adaptive-scheduler.resource-stabilization-timeout	10 s	Duration	The resource stabilization timeout defines the time the JobManager will wait if fewer than the desired but sufficient resources are available. The timeout starts once sufficient resources for running the job are available. Once this timeout has passed, the job will start executing with the available resources. If `scheduler-mode` is configured to `REACTIVE`, this configuration value will default to 0, so that jobs are starting immediately with the available resources.
jobmanager.adaptive-scheduler.resource-wait-timeout	5 min	Duration	The maximum time the JobManager will wait to acquire all required resources after a job submission or restart. Once elapsed it will try to run the job with a lower parallelism, or fail if the minimum amount of resources could not be acquired. Increasing this value will make the cluster more resilient against temporary resources shortages (e.g., there is more time for a failed TaskManager to be restarted). Setting a negative duration will disable the resource timeout: The JobManager will wait indefinitely for resources to appear. If `scheduler-mode` is configured to `REACTIVE`, this configuration value will default to a negative value to disable the resource timeout.
jobmanager.archive.fs.dir	(none)	String	Directory for JobManager to store the archives of completed jobs.
jobmanager.execution.attempts-history-size	16	Integer	The maximum number of historical execution attempts kept in history.
jobmanager.execution.failover-strategy	"region"	String	This option specifies how the job computation recovers from task failures. Accepted values are: 'full': Restarts all tasks to recover the job. 'region': Restarts all tasks that could be affected by the task failure. More details can be found here.
jobmanager.failure-enrichers	(none)	String	An optional list of failure enricher names. If empty, NO failure enrichers will be started. If configured, only enrichers whose name matches any of the names in the list will be started.
jobmanager.future-pool.size	(none)	Integer	The size of the future thread pool to execute future callbacks for all spawned JobMasters. If no value is specified, then Flink defaults to the number of available CPU cores.
jobmanager.io-pool.size	(none)	Integer	The size of the IO thread pool to run blocking operations for all spawned JobMasters. This includes recovery and completion of checkpoints. Increase this value if you experience slow checkpoint operations when running many jobs. If no value is specified, then Flink defaults to the number of available CPU cores.
jobmanager.partition.hybrid.partition-data-consume-constraint	(none)	Enum	Controls the constraint that hybrid partition data can be consumed. Note that this option is allowed only when `jobmanager.scheduler` has been set to `AdaptiveBatch`. Accepted values are: '`ALL_PRODUCERS_FINISHED`': hybrid partition data can be consumed only when all producers are finished. '`ONLY_FINISHED_PRODUCERS`': hybrid partition data can be consumed when its producer is finished. '`UNFINISHED_PRODUCERS`': hybrid partition data can be consumed even if its producer is un-finished. Possible values: "ALL_PRODUCERS_FINISHED" "ONLY_FINISHED_PRODUCERS" "UNFINISHED_PRODUCERS"
jobmanager.resource-id	(none)	String	The JobManager's ResourceID. If not configured, the ResourceID will be generated randomly.
jobmanager.retrieve-taskmanager-hostname	true	Boolean	Flag indicating whether JobManager would retrieve canonical host name of TaskManager during registration. If the option is set to "false", TaskManager registration with JobManager could be faster, since no reverse DNS lookup is performed. However, local input split assignment (such as for HDFS files) may be impacted.
jobmanager.rpc.address	(none)	String	The config parameter defining the network address to connect to for communication with the job manager. This value is only interpreted in setups where a single JobManager with static name or address exists (simple standalone setups, or container setups with dynamic service name resolution). It is not used in many high-availability setups, when a leader-election service (like ZooKeeper) is used to elect and discover the JobManager leader from potentially multiple standby JobManagers.
jobmanager.rpc.port	6123	Integer	The config parameter defining the network port to connect to for communication with the job manager. Like jobmanager.rpc.address, this value is only interpreted in setups where a single JobManager with static name/address and port exists (simple standalone setups, or container setups with dynamic service name resolution). This config option is not used in many high-availability setups, when a leader-election service (like ZooKeeper) is used to elect and discover the JobManager leader from potentially multiple standby JobManagers.
jobmanager.scheduler	Default	Enum	Determines which scheduler implementation is used to schedule tasks. Accepted values are: 'Default': Default scheduler 'Adaptive': Adaptive scheduler. More details can be found here. 'AdaptiveBatch': Adaptive batch scheduler. More details can be found here. Possible values: "Default" "Adaptive" "AdaptiveBatch"
jobstore.cache-size	52428800	Long	The job store cache size in bytes which is used to keep completed jobs in memory.
jobstore.expiration-time	3600	Long	The time in seconds after which a completed job expires and is purged from the job store.
jobstore.max-capacity	infinite	Integer	The max number of completed jobs that can be kept in the job store. NOTICE: if memory store keeps too many jobs in session cluster, it may cause FullGC or OOM in jm.
jobstore.type	File	Enum	Determines which job store implementation is used in session cluster. Accepted values are: 'File': the file job store keeps the archived execution graphs in files 'Memory': the memory job store keeps the archived execution graphs in memory. You may need to limit the `jobstore.max-capacity` to mitigate FullGC or OOM when there are too many graphs Possible values: "File" "Memory"
web.exception-history-size	16	Integer	The maximum number of failures collected by the exception history per job.

Blob Server

The Blob Server is a component in the JobManager. It is used for distribution of objects that are too large to be attached to a RPC message and that benefit from caching (like Jar files or large serialized code objects).

Key	Default	Type	Description
blob.client.connect.timeout	0	Integer	The connection timeout in milliseconds for the blob client.
blob.client.socket.timeout	300000	Integer	The socket timeout in milliseconds for the blob client.
blob.fetch.backlog	1000	Integer	The config parameter defining the desired backlog of BLOB fetches on the JobManager.Note that the operating system usually enforces an upper limit on the backlog size based on the `SOMAXCONN` setting.

blob.service.ssl.enabled	true	Boolean	Flag to override ssl support for the blob service transport.
blob.storage.directory	(none)	String	The config parameter defining the local storage directory to be used by the blob server. If not configured, then it will default to <WORKING_DIR>/blobStorage.

ResourceManager

These configuration keys control basic Resource Manager behavior, independent of the used resource orchestration management framework (YARN, etc.)

Key	Default	Type	Description
resourcemanager.job.timeout	"5 minutes"	String	Timeout for jobs which don't have a job manager as leader assigned.
resourcemanager.previous-worker.recovery.timeout	0 ms	Duration	Timeout for resource manager to recover all the previous attempts workers. If exceeded, resource manager will handle new resource requests by requesting new workers. If you would like to reuse the previous workers as much as possible, you should configure a longer timeout time to wait for previous workers to register.
resourcemanager.rpc.port	0	Integer	Defines the network port to connect to for communication with the resource manager. By default, the port of the JobManager, because the same ActorSystem is used. Its not possible to use this configuration key to define port ranges.
resourcemanager.standalone.start-up-time	-1	Long	Time in milliseconds of the start-up period of a standalone cluster. During this time, resource manager of the standalone cluster expects new task executors to be registered, and will not fail slot requests that can not be satisfied by any current registered slots. After this time, it will fail pending and new coming requests immediately that can not be satisfied by registered slots. If not set, `slot.request.timeout` will be used by default.
resourcemanager.start-worker.max-failure-rate	10.0	Double	The maximum number of start worker failures (Native Kubernetes / Yarn) per minute before pausing requesting new workers. Once the threshold is reached, subsequent worker requests will be postponed to after a configured retry interval ('resourcemanager.start-worker.retry-interval').
resourcemanager.start-worker.retry-interval	3 s	Duration	The time to wait before requesting new workers (Native Kubernetes / Yarn) once the max failure rate of starting workers ('resourcemanager.start-worker.max-failure-rate') is reached.
resourcemanager.taskmanager-registration.timeout	5 min	Duration	Timeout for TaskManagers to register at the active resource managers. If exceeded, active resource manager will release and try to re-request the resource for the worker. If not configured, fallback to 'taskmanager.registration.timeout'.
resourcemanager.taskmanager-timeout	30000	Long	The timeout for an idle task manager to be released.
slotmanager.max-total-resource.cpu	(none)	Double	Maximum cpu cores the Flink cluster allocates for slots. Resources for JobManager and TaskManager framework are excluded. If not configured, it will be derived from 'slotmanager.number-of-slots.max'.
slotmanager.max-total-resource.memory	(none)	MemorySize	Maximum memory size the Flink cluster allocates for slots. Resources for JobManager and TaskManager framework are excluded. If not configured, it will be derived from 'slotmanager.number-of-slots.max'.
slotmanager.number-of-slots.max	infinite	Integer	Defines the maximum number of slots that the Flink cluster allocates. This configuration option is meant for limiting the resource consumption for batch workloads. It is not recommended to configure this option for streaming workloads, which may fail if there are not enough slots. Note that this configuration option does not take effect for standalone clusters, where how many slots are allocated is not controlled by Flink.
slotmanager.redundant-taskmanager-num	0	Integer	The number of redundant task managers. Redundant task managers are extra task managers started by Flink, in order to speed up job recovery in case of failures due to task manager lost. Note that this feature is available only to the active deployments (native K8s, Yarn).For fine-grained resource requirement, Redundant resources will be reserved, but it is possible that we have many small pieces of free resources form multiple TMs, which added up larger than the desired redundant resources, but each piece is too small to match the resource requirement of tasks from the failed worker.

Full TaskManagerOptions #

Please refer to the network memory tuning guide for details on how to use the taskmanager.network.memory.buffer-debloat.* configuration.

Key	Default	Type	Description
task.cancellation.interval	30000	Long	Time interval between two successive task cancellation attempts in milliseconds.
task.cancellation.timeout	180000	Long	Timeout in milliseconds after which a task cancellation times out and leads to a fatal TaskManager error. A value of 0 deactivates the watch dog. Notice that a task cancellation is different from both a task failure and a clean shutdown. Task cancellation timeout only applies to task cancellation and does not apply to task closing/clean-up caused by a task failure or a clean shutdown.
task.cancellation.timers.timeout	7500	Long	Time we wait for the timers in milliseconds to finish all pending timer threads when the stream task is cancelled.
taskmanager.data.port	0	Integer	The task manager’s external port used for data exchange operations.
taskmanager.data.ssl.enabled	true	Boolean	Enable SSL support for the taskmanager data transport. This is applicable only when the global flag for internal SSL (security.ssl.internal.enabled) is set to true
taskmanager.debug.memory.log	false	Boolean	Flag indicating whether to start a thread, which repeatedly logs the memory usage of the JVM.
taskmanager.debug.memory.log-interval	5000	Long	The interval (in ms) for the log thread to log the current memory usage.
taskmanager.host	(none)	String	The external address of the network interface where the TaskManager is exposed. Because different TaskManagers need different values for this option, usually it is specified in an additional non-shared TaskManager-specific config file.
taskmanager.jvm-exit-on-oom	false	Boolean	Whether to kill the TaskManager when the task thread throws an OutOfMemoryError.
taskmanager.memory.min-segment-size	256 bytes	MemorySize	Minimum possible size of memory buffers used by the network stack and the memory manager. ex. can be used for automatic buffer size adjustment.
taskmanager.memory.segment-size	32 kb	MemorySize	Size of memory buffers used by the network stack and the memory manager.
taskmanager.network.bind-policy	"ip"	String	The automatic address binding policy used by the TaskManager if "taskmanager.host" is not set. The value should be one of the following: "name" - uses hostname as binding address "ip" - uses host's ip address as binding address
taskmanager.numberOfTaskSlots	1	Integer	The number of parallel operator or user function instances that a single TaskManager can run. If this value is larger than 1, a single TaskManager takes multiple instances of a function or operator. That way, the TaskManager can utilize multiple CPU cores, but at the same time, the available memory is divided between the different operator or function instances. This value is typically proportional to the number of physical CPU cores that the TaskManager's machine has (e.g., equal to the number of cores, or half the number of cores).
taskmanager.registration.timeout	5 min	Duration	Defines the timeout for the TaskManager registration. If the duration is exceeded without a successful registration, then the TaskManager terminates.
taskmanager.resource-id	(none)	String	The TaskManager's ResourceID. If not configured, the ResourceID will be generated with the "RpcAddress:RpcPort" and a 6-character random string. Notice that this option is not valid in Yarn and Native Kubernetes mode.
taskmanager.rpc.port	"0"	String	The external RPC port where the TaskManager is exposed. Accepts a list of ports (“50100,50101”), ranges (“50100-50200”) or a combination of both. It is recommended to set a range of ports to avoid collisions when multiple TaskManagers are running on the same machine.
taskmanager.slot.timeout	10 s	Duration	Timeout used for identifying inactive slots. The TaskManager will free the slot if it does not become active within the given amount of time. Inactive slots can be caused by an out-dated slot request. If no value is configured, then it will fall back to `pekko.ask.timeout`.

Data Transport Network Stack

These options are for the network stack that handles the streaming and batch data exchanges between TaskManagers.

Key	Default	Type	Description
taskmanager.network.batch-shuffle.compression.enabled	true	Boolean	Boolean flag indicating whether the shuffle data will be compressed for batch shuffle mode. Note that data is compressed per buffer and compression can incur extra CPU overhead, so it is more effective for IO bounded scenario when compression ratio is high.
taskmanager.network.blocking-shuffle.type	"file"	String	The blocking shuffle type, either "mmap" or "file". The "auto" means selecting the property type automatically based on system memory architecture (64 bit for mmap and 32 bit for file). Note that the memory usage of mmap is not accounted by configured memory limits, but some resource frameworks like yarn would track this memory usage and kill the container once memory exceeding some threshold. Also note that this option is experimental and might be changed future.
taskmanager.network.compression.codec	"LZ4"	String	The codec to be used when compressing shuffle data, only "LZ4", "LZO" and "ZSTD" are supported now. Through tpc-ds test of these three algorithms, the results show that "LZ4" algorithm has the highest compression and decompression speed, but the compression ratio is the lowest. "ZSTD" has the highest compression ratio, but the compression and decompression speed is the slowest, and LZO is between the two. Also note that this option is experimental and might be changed in the future.
taskmanager.network.detailed-metrics	false	Boolean	Boolean flag to enable/disable more detailed metrics about inbound/outbound network queue lengths.
taskmanager.network.hybrid-shuffle.enable-new-mode	true	Boolean	The option is used to enable the new mode of hybrid shuffle, which has resolved existing issues in the legacy mode. First, the new mode uses less required network memory. Second, the new mode can store shuffle data in remote storage when the disk space is not enough, which could avoid insufficient disk space errors and is only supported when taskmanager.network.hybrid-shuffle.remote.path is configured. The new mode is currently in an experimental phase. It can be set to false to fallback to the legacy mode if something unexpected. Once the new mode reaches a stable state, the legacy mode as well as the option will be removed.
taskmanager.network.hybrid-shuffle.num-retained-in-memory-regions-max	1048576	Long	Controls the max number of hybrid retained regions in memory. Note: This option will be ignored if taskmanager.network.hybrid-shuffle.enable-new-mode is set true.
taskmanager.network.hybrid-shuffle.remote.path	(none)	String	The option is used to configure the base path of remote storage for hybrid shuffle. The shuffle data will be stored in remote storage when the disk space is not enough. Note: If the option is configured and taskmanager.network.hybrid-shuffle.enable-new-mode is false, this option will be ignored. If the option is not configured and taskmanager.network.hybrid-shuffle.enable-new-mode is true, the remote storage will be disabled.
taskmanager.network.hybrid-shuffle.spill-index-region-group-size	1024	Integer	Controls the region group size(in bytes) of hybrid spilled file data index. Note: This option will be ignored if taskmanager.network.hybrid-shuffle.enable-new-mode is set true.
taskmanager.network.max-num-tcp-connections	1	Integer	The maximum number of tpc connections between taskmanagers for data communication.
taskmanager.network.memory.buffer-debloat.enabled	false	Boolean	The switch of the automatic buffered debloating feature. If enabled the amount of in-flight data will be adjusted automatically accordingly to the measured throughput.
taskmanager.network.memory.buffer-debloat.period	200 ms	Duration	The minimum period of time after which the buffer size will be debloated if required. The low value provides a fast reaction to the load fluctuation but can influence the performance.
taskmanager.network.memory.buffer-debloat.samples	20	Integer	The number of the last buffer size values that will be taken for the correct calculation of the new one.
taskmanager.network.memory.buffer-debloat.target	1 s	Duration	The target total time after which buffered in-flight data should be fully consumed. This configuration option will be used, in combination with the measured throughput, to adjust the amount of in-flight data.
taskmanager.network.memory.buffer-debloat.threshold-percentages	25	Integer	The minimum difference in percentage between the newly calculated buffer size and the old one to announce the new value. Can be used to avoid constant back and forth small adjustments.
taskmanager.network.memory.buffers-per-channel	2	Integer	Number of exclusive network buffers for each outgoing/incoming channel (subpartition/input channel) in the credit-based flow control model. For the outgoing channel(subpartition), this value is the effective exclusive buffers per channel. For the incoming channel(input channel), this value is the max number of exclusive buffers per channel, the number of effective exclusive network buffers per channel is dynamically calculated from taskmanager.network.memory.read-buffer.required-per-gate.max and the effective range is from 0 to the configured value. The minimum valid value for the option is 0. When the option is configured as 0, the exclusive network buffers used by downstream incoming channel will be 0, but for each upstream outgoing channel, max(1, configured value) will be used. In other words, we ensure that, for performance reasons, at least one buffer is used per outgoing channel regardless of the configuration.
taskmanager.network.memory.floating-buffers-per-gate	8	Integer	Number of floating network buffers for each outgoing/incoming gate (result partition/input gate). In credit-based flow control mode, this indicates how many floating credits are shared among all the channels. The floating buffers can help relieve back-pressure caused by unbalanced data distribution among the subpartitions. For the outgoing gate(result partition), this value is the effective floating buffers per gate. For the incoming gate(input gate), this value is a recommended number of floating buffers, the number of effective floating network buffers per gate is dynamically calculated from taskmanager.network.memory.read-buffer.required-per-gate.max and the range of effective floating buffers is from 0 to (parallelism - 1).
taskmanager.network.memory.max-buffers-per-channel	10	Integer	Number of max buffers that can be used for each channel. If a channel exceeds the number of max buffers, it will make the task become unavailable, cause the back pressure and block the data processing. This might speed up checkpoint alignment by preventing excessive growth of the buffered in-flight data in case of data skew and high number of configured floating buffers. This limit is not strictly guaranteed, and can be ignored by things like flatMap operators, records spanning multiple buffers or single timer producing large amount of data.
taskmanager.network.memory.max-overdraft-buffers-per-gate	5	Integer	Number of max overdraft network buffers to use for each ResultPartition. The overdraft buffers will be used when the subtask cannot apply to the normal buffers due to back pressure, while subtask is performing an action that can not be interrupted in the middle, like serializing a large record, flatMap operator producing multiple records for one single input record or processing time timer producing large output. In situations like that system will allow subtask to request overdraft buffers, so that the subtask can finish such uninterruptible action, without blocking unaligned checkpoints for long period of time. Overdraft buffers are provided on best effort basis only if the system has some unused buffers available. Subtask that has used overdraft buffers won't be allowed to process any more records until the overdraft buffers are returned to the pool. It should be noted that this config option only takes effect for Pipelined Shuffle.
taskmanager.network.memory.read-buffer.required-per-gate.max	(none)	Integer	The maximum number of network read buffers that are required by an input gate. (An input gate is responsible for reading data from all subtasks of an upstream task.) The number of buffers needed by an input gate is dynamically calculated in runtime, depending on various factors (e.g., the parallelism of the upstream task). Among the calculated number of needed buffers, the part below this configured value is required, while the excess part, if any, is optional. A task will fail if the required buffers cannot be obtained in runtime. A task will not fail due to not obtaining optional buffers, but may suffer a performance reduction. If not explicitly configured, the default value is Integer.MAX_VALUE for streaming workloads, and 1000 for batch workloads. If explicitly configured, the configured value should be at least 1.
taskmanager.network.netty.client.connectTimeoutSec	120	Integer	The Netty client connection timeout.
taskmanager.network.netty.client.numThreads	-1	Integer	The number of Netty client threads.
taskmanager.network.netty.client.tcp.keepCount	(none)	Integer	The maximum number of keepalive probes TCP should send before Netty client dropping the connection. Note: This will not take effect when using netty transport type of nio with an older version of JDK 8, refer to https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8194298.
taskmanager.network.netty.client.tcp.keepIdleSec	(none)	Integer	The time (in seconds) the connection needs to remain idle before TCP starts sending keepalive probes. Note: This will not take effect when using netty transport type of nio with an older version of JDK 8, refer to https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8194298.
taskmanager.network.netty.client.tcp.keepIntervalSec	(none)	Integer	The time (in seconds) between individual keepalive probes. Note: This will not take effect when using netty transport type of nio with an older version of JDK 8, refer to https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8194298.
taskmanager.network.netty.num-arenas	-1	Integer	The number of Netty arenas.
taskmanager.network.netty.sendReceiveBufferSize	0	Integer	The Netty send and receive buffer size. This defaults to the system buffer size (cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_[rw]mem) and is 4 MiB in modern Linux.
taskmanager.network.netty.server.backlog	0	Integer	The netty server connection backlog.
taskmanager.network.netty.server.numThreads	-1	Integer	The number of Netty server threads.
taskmanager.network.netty.transport	"auto"	String	The Netty transport type, either "nio" or "epoll". The "auto" means selecting the property mode automatically based on the platform. Note that the "epoll" mode can get better performance, less GC and have more advanced features which are only available on modern Linux.
taskmanager.network.request-backoff.initial	100	Integer	Minimum backoff in milliseconds for partition requests of input channels.
taskmanager.network.request-backoff.max	10000	Integer	Maximum backoff in milliseconds for partition requests of input channels.
taskmanager.network.retries	0	Integer	The number of retry attempts for network communication. Currently it's only used for establishing input/output channel connections
taskmanager.network.sort-shuffle.min-buffers	512	Integer	Minimum number of network buffers required per blocking result partition for sort-shuffle. For production usage, it is suggested to increase this config value to at least 2048 (64M memory if the default 32K memory segment size is used) to improve the data compression ratio and reduce the small network packets. Usually, several hundreds of megabytes memory is enough for large scale batch jobs. Note: you may also need to increase the size of total network memory to avoid the 'insufficient number of network buffers' error if you are increasing this config value.
taskmanager.network.sort-shuffle.min-parallelism	1	Integer	Parallelism threshold to switch between sort-based blocking shuffle and hash-based blocking shuffle, which means for batch jobs of smaller parallelism, hash-shuffle will be used and for batch jobs of larger or equal parallelism, sort-shuffle will be used. The value 1 means that sort-shuffle is the default option. Note: For production usage, you may also need to tune 'taskmanager.network.sort-shuffle.min-buffers' and 'taskmanager.memory.framework.off-heap.batch-shuffle.size' for better performance.
taskmanager.network.tcp-connection.enable-reuse-across-jobs	true	Boolean	Whether to reuse tcp connections across multi jobs. If set to true, tcp connections will not be released after job finishes. The subsequent jobs will be free from the overhead of the connection re-establish. However, this may lead to an increase in the total number of connections on your machine. When it reaches the upper limit, you can set it to false to release idle connections. Note that to avoid connection leak, you must set taskmanager.network.max-num-tcp-connections to a smaller value before you enable tcp connection reuse.

RPC / Pekko #

Flink uses Pekko for RPC between components (JobManager/TaskManager/ResourceManager). Flink does not use Pekko for data transport.

Key	Default	Type	Description
pekko.ask.callstack	true	Boolean	If true, call stack for asynchronous asks are captured. That way, when an ask fails (for example times out), you get a proper exception, describing to the original method call and call site. Note that in case of having millions of concurrent RPC calls, this may add to the memory footprint.
pekko.ask.timeout	10 s	Duration	Timeout used for all futures and blocking Pekko calls. If Flink fails due to timeouts then you should try to increase this value. Timeouts can be caused by slow machines or a congested network. The timeout value requires a time-unit specifier (ms/s/min/h/d).
pekko.client-socket-worker-pool.pool-size-factor	1.0	Double	The pool size factor is used to determine thread pool size using the following formula: ceil(available processors * factor). Resulting size is then bounded by the pool-size-min and pool-size-max values.

pekko.log.lifecycle.events	false	Boolean	Turns on the Pekko’s remote logging of events. Set this value to 'true' in case of debugging.
pekko.lookup.timeout	10 s	Duration	Timeout used for the lookup of the JobManager. The timeout value has to contain a time-unit specifier (ms/s/min/h/d).
pekko.retry-gate-closed-for	50	Long	Milliseconds a gate should be closed for after a remote connection was disconnected.
pekko.server-socket-worker-pool.pool-size-factor	1.0	Double	The pool size factor is used to determine thread pool size using the following formula: ceil(available processors * factor). Resulting size is then bounded by the pool-size-min and pool-size-max values.

pekko.startup-timeout	(none)	String	Timeout after which the startup of a remote component is considered being failed.
pekko.tcp.timeout	"20 s"	String	Timeout for all outbound connections. If you should experience problems with connecting to a TaskManager due to a slow network, you should increase this value.
pekko.throughput	15	Integer	Number of messages that are processed in a batch before returning the thread to the pool. Low values denote a fair scheduling whereas high values can increase the performance at the cost of unfairness.

env.stdout-err.redirect-to-file	false	Boolean	Whether redirect stdout and stderr to files when running foreground. If enabled, logs won't append the console too. Note that redirected files do not support rolling rotate.
env.yarn.conf.dir	(none)	String	Path to yarn configuration directory. It is required to run flink on YARN. You can also set it via environment variable.

Forwarding Environment Variables #

You can configure environment variables to be set on the JobManager and TaskManager processes started on Yarn.

containerized.master.env.: Prefix for passing custom environment variables to Flink’s JobManager process. For example for passing LD_LIBRARY_PATH as an env variable to the JobManager, set containerized.master.env.LD_LIBRARY_PATH: “/usr/lib/native” in the flink-conf.yaml.
containerized.taskmanager.env.: Similar to the above, this configuration prefix allows setting custom environment variables for the workers (TaskManagers).

Deprecated Options #

These options relate to parts of Flink that are not actively developed any more. These options may be removed in a future release.

DataSet API Optimizer

Key	Default	Type	Description
compiler.delimited-informat.max-line-samples	10	Integer	The maximum number of line samples taken by the compiler for delimited inputs. The samples are used to estimate the number of records. This value can be overridden for a specific input with the input format’s parameters.
compiler.delimited-informat.max-sample-len	2097152	Integer	The maximal length of a line sample that the compiler takes for delimited inputs. If the length of a single sample exceeds this value (possible because of misconfiguration of the parser), the sampling aborts. This value can be overridden for a specific input with the input format’s parameters.
compiler.delimited-informat.min-line-samples	2	Integer	The minimum number of line samples taken by the compiler for delimited inputs. The samples are used to estimate the number of records. This value can be overridden for a specific input with the input format’s parameters

DataSet API Runtime Algorithms

Key	Default	Type	Description
taskmanager.runtime.hashjoin-bloom-filters	false	Boolean	Flag to activate/deactivate bloom filters in the hybrid hash join implementation. In cases where the hash join needs to spill to disk (datasets larger than the reserved fraction of memory), these bloom filters can greatly reduce the number of spilled records, at the cost some CPU cycles.
taskmanager.runtime.large-record-handler	false	Boolean	Whether to use the LargeRecordHandler when spilling. If a record will not fit into the sorting buffer. The record will be spilled on disk and the sorting will continue with only the key. The record itself will be read afterwards when merging.
taskmanager.runtime.max-fan	128	Integer	The maximal fan-in for external merge joins and fan-out for spilling hash tables. Limits the number of file handles per operator, but may cause intermediate merging/partitioning, if set too small.
taskmanager.runtime.sort-spilling-threshold	0.8	Float	A sort operation starts spilling when this fraction of its memory budget is full.

DataSet File Sinks

Key	Default	Type	Description
fs.output.always-create-directory	false	Boolean	File writers running with a parallelism larger than one create a directory for the output file path and put the different result files (one per parallel writer task) into that directory. If this option is set to "true", writers with a parallelism of 1 will also create a directory and place a single result file into it. If the option is set to "false", the writer will directly create the file directly at the output path, without creating a containing directory.
fs.overwrite-files	false	Boolean	Specifies whether file output writers should overwrite existing files by default. Set to "true" to overwrite by default,"false" otherwise.
