             Summary: Add config option to specify "home directory" for YARN 
client resource sharing
                 Key: FLINK-4873
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4873
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: YARN Client
    Affects Versions: 1.2.0, 1.1.3
            Reporter: Gyula Fora


The YARN client currently uses FileSystem.getHomeDirectory() to store the jar 
files that needed to be shared on the cluster. This pretty much forces users to 
run HDFS or something compatible with the Hadoop FS api on the cluster.

In some production environments file systems (distributed or simply shared) are 
simply mounted under the same path and do not require the use of the hadoop api 
for convenience. If we want to run Flink on YARN in these cases we would need 
to be able to define the "home directory" where Flink should copy the files for 
sharing.

It could be something like:
yarn.resource.upload.dir in the flink-conf.yaml
