Flink Jira Bot updated FLINK-11007:
-----------------------------------
    Labels: auto-unassigned stale-major  (was: auto-unassigned)

I am the [Flink Jira Bot|https://github.com/apache/flink-jira-bot/] and I help the community manage its development. I see this issues has been marked as Major but is unassigned and neither itself nor its Sub-Tasks have been updated for 30 days. I have gone ahead and added a "stale-major" to the issue". If this ticket is a Major, please either assign yourself or give an update. Afterwards, please remove the label or in 7 days the issue will be deprioritized.

> In the [documentation|https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.6/dev/stream/state/checkpointing.html#state-checkpoints-dir] about checkpointing, it is explained that you must set the config file setting `state.checkpoints.dir` to specify the directory where checkpoint metadata files will be stored. 
> This is no longer the case, and apparently now checkpoint metadata files are stored in the checkpoint data directory itself. This should be updated in the docs.
