Sihua Zhou commented on FLINK-9260:
-----------------------------------
[~StephanEwen] Thanks for your suggestion! I noticed that you have unified the
storage directory for externalized checkpoint & checkpoint data which is so
nice that could make the thing simpler.
> Introduce a friendly way to resume the job from externalized checkpoints
> automatically

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-9260
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Client
> Affects Versions: 1.5.0
> Reporter: Sihua Zhou
> Assignee: Sihua Zhou
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.6.0

>
> Currently, it's quite a bit not friendly for users to recover job from the
> externalized checkpoint, user need to find the dedicate dir for the job which
> is not a easy thing when there are too many jobs. This ticket attend to
> introduce a more friendly way to allow the user to use the externalized
> checkpoint to do recovery.
> The implementation steps are copied from the comments of [~StephanEwen] in
> [9043|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-9043]
> - We could make this an option where you pass a flag (-r) to automatically
> look for the latest checkpoint in a given directory.
> - If more than one jobs checkpointed there before, this operation would fail.
> - We might also need a way to have jobs not create the UUID subdirectory,
> otherwise the scanning for the latest checkpoint would not easily work.
