        Subject: [openMosix-general] checkpoint/restart utility
       =20
        Hi all!
        There have been several questions about checkpoint/restart of
        processes under openMosix.
         We have written utility that can transparently=20
        checkpoint/restart of processes. It works with openMosix kernel
        and can be found=20
        at http://freshmeat.net/projects/chpox/ or at
        http://www.cluster.kiev.ua/tasks/chpx_eng.html.
        It is used on the cluster of Information&Computing Center of
        Kyiv Taras Shevchenko University=20
        [http://www.cluster.kiev.ua] and probably will be useful for
        someone else.

According to their website, this is based on VMADUMP. Would it work in a
bproc cluster? Is anyone using other checkpointing tools in bproc
clusters?

Cheers,
Miguel
