Sean Owen updated SPARK-11459:
------------------------------
    Priority: Minor  (was: Major)

What's the use case for this? you can already control the directory, but what 
Spark puts in it is an implementation detail you don't generally want to rely on

> Allow configuring checkpoint dir, filenames

> 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?
