Hi

thanks for your explanation, what you want is to disable periodic
checkpoint in some time duration, and at other times the periodic
checkpoint is doing as normal. Currently, Flink does not support this, as
you've created an issue for this, we can track this in the issue side. for
now, if you really want this, you can change the logic in
`CheckpointCoordinator#triggerCheckpoint`.

Best,
Congxian
