#9981 bug: `_handling_sigterm` terminates job before graceful termination is complete Issue created by ralichkov Meltano Version 4.1.2 Python Version None Bug scope CLI (options, error messages, logging, etc.) Operating System MacOS & Linux Description Recently I've been interested in the graceful termination functionality introduced in singer-sdk v0.47 with this PR. I think the implementation is elegant and the SDK part works great! When testing this out both on my local machine and in production, I find that when Meltano receives

SIGTERM

the job terminates before the plugins have finished their part of "graceful termination". Using

SIGINT

allows the plugins to fully exit, though. I find that the root cause for this is the

SystemExit

exception thrown in the handler function called in

_handling_sigterm

. By removing it, i was able to achieve the desired behavior. def handler(*_) -> t.NoReturn: sigterm_status = 143 - raise SystemExit(sigterm_status) I'm not experienced with async programming, so I can't tell whether this is the correct direction, or whether this handler is needed at all.
