--------------------------------------
Thanks for the pointer! I'll follow that issue.
> Request for the ability to move checkpoints/savepoints
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-14357
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-14357
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Wish
> Reporter: Mitch Wasson
> Priority: Minor
>
> This request comes out of working with the state processor APIs.
> I was originally trying to have this workflow when using the state processing
> APIs:
> # Download savepoint / checkpoint from s3 to my pc using non-flink tooling
> (e.g. s3 cli)
> # Process the savepoint / checkpoint locally without s3 access
> This ended up not being possible.
> It seems that the state processing APIs look at the checkpoint / savepoint
> metadata file first. Then they follow fully qualified s3 links from the
> metadata file. So, even though I've downloaded the entire checkpoint /
> savepoint to my pc, s3 access is still required.
> This is a specific instance of the problem, which I think more generally can
> be stated as: Checkpoints/savepoints can't be moved (easily)
>
> It would be great if savepoints / checkpoints could be moved around in a
> self-contained manner and used at a later time.
