NB Kapil, would you be kind to clarify the relation/comparison? i.e. like : $> apt-cache show dmtcp Package: dmtcp Version: 1.2.5-1 Installed-Size: 1889 Maintainer: Kapil Arya <ka...@ccs.neu.edu> Architecture: amd64 Depends: libmtcp1, libc6 (>= 2.9), libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1), libstdc++6 (>= 4.2.1) Description-en: Checkpoint/Restart functionality for Linux processes DMTCP (Distributed MultiThreaded Checkpointing) is a tool to transparently checkpointing the state of an arbitrary group of programs including multi-threaded and distributed computations. It operates directly on the user binary executable, with no Linux kernel modules or other kernel mods. . Among the applications supported by DMTCP are OpenMPI, MATLAB, Python, Perl, and many programming languages and shell scripting languages. DMTCP also supports GNU screen sessions, including vim/cscope and emacs. With the use of TightVNC, it can also checkpoint and restart X-Window applications, as long as they do not use extensions (e.g.: no OpenGL, no video). -- Yaroslav O.
