Hi Rex,

that's exactly right and we are also working on bringing this feature to unaligned checkpoints.

Thanks! Looks like you can't with unaligned checkpoints, which seems to imply that you can with normal checkpointing mechanism.

 Hi Rex,

I think doc [1] should have given some descriptions. Rescaling from previous checkpoint is still supported in current Flink version.

Subject: Restoring from checkpoint with different parallism

 

Hello,

When using the TableAPI, is it safe to run a flink job with a different `-p` parallelism while restoring from a checkpoint (not a savepoint) using `-s`, without any rescaling of actual machines? I don't seem to find this documented anywhere.

Thanks!
