Hi Vishwas,

In the standalone cluster HA mode, Flink heavily depends on ZooKeeper. Not only for leader election, but also for:

  • Checkpoint metadata info;
  • JobGraph store;
  • ....
So you should make sure your ZooKeeper Cluster works normally. More details please see[1][2].

Best,
Vino

Hi all,
I am using flink 1.7.2 as a standalone cluster in high availability mode with zookeeper. I have noticed that all flink processes go down once zookeeper goes down ? Is this expected behavior since the leader election has already happened and the job has been running for several hours. 


Best,
Vishwas
