Haohui Mai commented on FLINK-5931:
-----------------------------------
I have confirmed with [~gtCarrera9] (a YARN committer and Hadoop PMC) that YARN
can continue to operate even if the {{defaultFS}} is unavailable.
> Make Flink highly available even if defaultFS is unavailable

> In order to use Flink in mission-critical environments, Flink must be
> available even if the {{defaultFS}} is unavailable.
> We have deployed HDFS in HA mode in our production environment. In our
> experience we have experienced performance degradations and downtime when the
> HDFS cluster is being expanded or under maintenances. Under this case it is
> desirable to deploy jobs through alternative filesystem (e.g., S3).
> This jira is to track the improvements to Flink to enable Flink to continue
> to operate even {{defaultFS}} is unavailable.
