Hi,
Quoting from a post by Garrick on Mar 20 2006:
"TORQUE doesn't have BLCR support. On Linux, TORQUE can suspend jobs
with SIGSTOP, but can't checkpoint.
I think one roadblock to adding BLCR support is that TORQUE doesn't have
a way of knowing when a BLCR-capable job is being run."
I also notice that in v2.1.2, there is an --enable-blcr option. But the
online docs or the changelog do not mention anything about the support
being added. And the above post is the latest one I could find on this
topic.
Can someone please clarify what the status of blcr support in torque
(under linux) is? And in general, if there is a recommended way to
'truly' checkpoint and restart jobs via torque on linux?
Thanks.
