Job Health Status

When a large number of Flink jobs are running in a cluster, the FlinkServer web UI provides the Flink job health management function to help you evaluate the health status of each job. You can view the health status of the current job on the page and export the health information of all jobs with just one click.

Healthy: The job is healthy and running properly.
Subhealthy:
- The "ALM-45637 Flink Task Is Continuously Under Back Pressure" alarm is generated. After the alarm is cleared based on the alarm information, the health status automatically recovers to Healthy.
- The "ALM-45639 Checkpointing of a Flink Job Times Out" alarm is generated. After the alarm is cleared based on the alarm information, the health status automatically recovers to Healthy.
Unhealthy:
- The "ALM-45636 Flink Job Checkpoints Keep Failing" alarm is generated. After the alarm is cleared based on the alarm information, the health status automatically recovers to Healthy.
- The "ALM-45638 Number of Restarts After Flink Job Failures Exceeds the Threshold" alarm is generated. After the alarm is cleared based on the alarm information and the job is restarted. The health status automatically recovers to Healthy.

Prerequisites

The cluster is running properly and the cluster client has been installed.

The function of registering jobs with FlinkServer and the job alarming function have been enabled by configuring the Client installation path/Flink/flink/conf/flink-conf.yaml file before submitting a job. The parameter settings are as follows.

**Table 1** Parameters for enabling job registration and job alarming
Parameter	Value	Description
job.register.enable	true	Whether to enable job registration with FlinkServer. Value options are as follows: true: Enable false: Disable
job.alarm.enable	true	Whether to enable job alarming. Value options are as follows: true: Enable false: Disable

NOTE:

If the function of registering jobs with FlinkServer is not enabled, you cannot start, develop, or stop jobs registered with FlinkServer through the client on the FlinkServer web UI.

Ensure that the job is not submitted in session mode and the job name must be specified.
