NAME

       ompi-checkpoint,  orte-checkpoint  -  Checkpoint a running parallel process using the Open
       MPI Checkpoint/Restart Service (CRS)

       NOTE: ompi-checkpoint, and orte-checkpoint are all exact synonyms for  each  other.  Using
       any of the names will result in exactly identical behavior.

SYNOPSIS

       ompi-checkpoint [ options ] <PID_OF_MPIRUN>

Options

       orte-checkpoint  will attempt to notify a running parallel job (identified by mpirun) that
       it has been requested that the job checkpoint itself. A global snapshot  handle  reference
       is presented to the user, which is used in ompi_restart to restart the job.

       <PID_OF_MPIRUN>
                 Process ID of the mpirun process.

       -h | --help
                 Display help for this command

       -w | --nowait
                 Do not wait for the application to finish checkpointing before returning.

       -s | --status
                 Display status messages regarding the progression of the checkpoint request.

       --term    After checkpointing the running job, terminate it.

       -v | --verbose
                 Enable verbose output for debugging.

       -gmca | --gmca <key> <value>
                 Pass  global  MCA  parameters  that are applicable to all contexts. <key> is the
                 parameter name; <value> is the parameter value.

       -mca | --mca <key> <value>
                 Send arguments to various MCA modules.

DESCRIPTION

       orte-checkpoint can be invoked multiple, non-overlapping times.  It is convenient to  note
       that  the  user  does  not  need  to spectify the checkpointer to be used here, as that is
       determined completely by each of the running process in the job being checkpointed.
