I asked this question because checkpointing with to NFS is successful, but checkpointing without a mount filesystem or a shared storage throws this warning&error:
WARNING: Could not preload specified file: File already exists. Fileset: /home/andreea/checkpoints/global/ompi_global_snapshot_7426.ckpt/0 Host: X Will continue attempting to launch the process. filem:rsh: wait_all(): Wait failed (-1) [[62871,0],0] ORTE_ERROR_LOG: Error in file snapc_full_global.c at line 1054 even if I set the mca-parameters like this: snapc_base_store_in_place=0 crs_base_snapshot_dir=/home/andreea/checkpoints/local snapc_base_global_snapshot_dir=/home/andreea/checkpoints/global and the nodes can connect through ssh without a password.
