Review Comment: I added a link to the [only doc page](https://nightlies.apache.org/flink/flink-docs-master/docs/ops/state/task_failure_recovery/#restart-pipelined-region-failover-strategy) where this is mentioned. Unfortunately, this is not one of the best docs and it doesn't really explain how partial restart works nor the constraints. That page would deserve a substantial editing :) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
