[jira] [Commented] (FLINK-16755) Savepoint docs should be updated

["Seth Wiesman (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-16755?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17066274#comment-17066274 ] 

Seth Wiesman commented on FLINK-16755:
--------------------------------------

Hmm, kinda sorta. We should be careful about what we say. There is no equivalent to bash `mv` and you still cannot just move files around. With the state proc api you _can technically_ read your savepoint and rewrite it somewhere else but it requires custom java code. It's so impractical just to move files right now that I don't think its worth documenting. 

When FLINK-14942 is implemented moving files will be possible.
