Ryan Williams created SPARK-11459: ------------------------------------- Summary: Allow configuring checkpoint dir, filenames Key: SPARK-11459 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-11459 Project: Spark Issue Type: Improvement Components: Spark Core Affects Versions: 1.5.1 Reporter: Ryan Williams
I frequently want to persist some RDDs to disk and choose the names of the files that they are saved as. Currently, the {{RDD.checkpoint}} flow [writes to a directory with a UUID in its name|https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/v1.5.1/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/SparkContext.scala#L2050], and the file is [always named after the RDD's ID|https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/v1.5.1/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/rdd/ReliableRDDCheckpointData.scala#L96]. Is there any reason not to allow the user to e.g. pass a string to {{RDD.checkpoint}} that will set the location that the RDD is checkpointed to? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
