So will the same savepoint logic apply to externalized checkpoints? I think
it would be good to have a similar way of restoring from checkpoints and
savepoints from a usability perspective.
I usually set the externalized checkpoint dir the same as the savepoint
dir, to make it easy to write scripts to get the latest and restart.
Otherwise I think the changes make a lot of sense and the directory
structure looks very reasonable.
One question, in the directory name could we maybe use the checkpoint id
instead of the random suffix or something more predictable? Maybe the
checkpoint date?
