Hi Josh/All,
               I just tested a simple c application with blcr and it worked 
fine.

It looks like its more to do with Openmpi.  Any ideas from you side?
 
Thank you.
 
Kind regards,
 
Jean.

I wonder if this is a bug with BLCR (since the segv stack is in the BLCR 
thread). Can you try an non-MPI version of this application that uses popen(), 
and see if BLCR properly checkpoints/restarts it?

If so, we can start to see what Open MPI might be doing to confuse things, but 
I suspect that this might be a bug with BLCR. Either way let us know what you 
find out.

Cheers,
Josh
