Gyula Fora closed FLINK-6755.
-----------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
> Allow triggering Checkpoints through command line client
> --------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-6755
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-6755
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Command Line Client, Runtime / Checkpointing
> Affects Versions: 1.3.0
> Reporter: Gyula Fora
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: auto-deprioritized-major, auto-unassigned
>
> The command line client currently only allows triggering (and canceling with)
> Savepoints.
> While this is good if we want to fork or modify the pipelines in a
> non-checkpoint compatible way, now with incremental checkpoints this becomes
> wasteful for simple job restarts/pipeline updates.
> I suggest we add a new command:
> ./bin/flink checkpoint <jobID> [checkpointDirectory]
> and a new flag -c for the cancel command to indicate we want to trigger a
> checkpoint:
> ./bin/flink cancel -c [targetDirectory] <jobID>
> Otherwise this can work similar to the current savepoint taking logic, we
> could probably even piggyback on the current messages by adding boolean flag
> indicating whether it should be a savepoint or a checkpoint.
