Jie Huang commented on SPARK-4094:
----------------------------------
Yes. we found the similar issue also. According to the document, it can support
checkpoint only before the action. But the problem here is, if you have a
lineage like below.
{noformat}
A-- B--C(action)
|--D(action)
{noformat}
If submit C action, then checkpoint B before action D, like
*C*
*B.checkpoint*
*D*
You cannot checkpoint that RDD(B). It doesn't align with the document and its
original design.
> checkpoint should still be available after rdd actions

> Key: SPARK-4094
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-4094
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Spark Core
> Affects Versions: 1.1.0
> Reporter: Zhang, Liye
>
> rdd.checkpoint() must be called before any actions on this rdd, if there is
> any other actions before, checkpoint would never succeed. For the following
> code as example:
> *rdd = sc.makeRDD(...)*
> *rdd.collect()*
> *rdd.checkpoint()*
> *rdd.count()*
> This rdd would never be checkpointed. But this would not happen for RDD
> cache. RDD cache would always make successfully before rdd actions no matter
> whether there is any actions before cache().
> So rdd.checkpoint() should also be with the same behavior with rdd.cache().
