Assaf Mendelson commented on SPARK-19045:
-----------------------------------------
I 100% agree standalone is not local, however, standalone in a single node
should not give this error, it makes perfect sense to use local file system in
this case.
As for figuring out if a path is NFS mount there are many ways to find this
such as:
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/72223/check-if-folder-is-a-mounted-remote-filesystem
Of course no method is universal and it doesn't cover all distributed systems
so maybe we should simply change the wording to something like: Make sure the
directory is on a distributed file system visible by all nodes.

> Key: SPARK-19045
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-19045
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Spark Core
> Affects Versions: 2.1.0
> Reporter: Assaf Mendelson
> Priority: Trivial
>
> When I do:
> sc.setCheckpointDir("/mydir") I get a warning:
> 17/01/01 06:26:42 WARN SparkContext: Spark is not running in local mode,
> therefore the checkpoint directory must not be on the local filesystem.
> Directory '/mydir' appears to be on the local filesystem.
> This occurs even though I use a single computer with local filesystem (using
> spark standalone). Reading the code it seems the same error would occur if I
> would use a cluster and an NFS share.
> Checkpoint should work on a local directory as long as there is a single node
> (even when using a resource manager rather than a single node) and should
> work in a cluster with locally mounted NFS share.
