ASF GitHub Bot commented on FLINK-4873: --------------------------------------- Github user gyfora commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/2796 We can also easily backport this to 1.1.* We are actually using this change in production there. > Add config option to specify "home directory" for YARN client resource sharing > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: FLINK-4873 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4873 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: YARN Client > Affects Versions: 1.2.0, 1.1.3 > Reporter: Gyula Fora > > The YARN client currently uses FileSystem.getHomeDirectory() to store the jar > files that needed to be shared on the cluster. This pretty much forces users > to run HDFS or something compatible with the Hadoop FS api on the cluster. > In some production environments file systems (distributed or simply shared) > are simply mounted under the same path and do not require the use of the > hadoop api for convenience. If we want to run Flink on YARN in these cases we > would need to be able to define the "home directory" where Flink should copy > the files for sharing. > It could be something like: > yarn.resource.upload.dir in the flink-conf.yaml -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
