Dear OpenMPI developers,
i have some questions about application robustness. , I have read
that in OpenMPI development trunk version will have implemented
techniques of checkpoint and restart. But, i need to know ho this
techniques works. Are they internal functions to insert in my code,
external tool or other?
The checkpoint/restart technique is transparent so there are no
functions to insert into your code. The functionality is described in
the user document on the wiki:
https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/wiki/ProcessFT_CR
And, when i restart my application, is it possible to modify the
initial number of processors?
Not at this time. You must restart with the same number of processes
(-np) as you initially started with.
