Checkpointing Programs and Processes

On SGI IRIX platforms, you can save the state of selected processes and then use this saved information to restart the processes from the position where they were saved. For more information, see the Process Window's Tools > Create Checkpoint and Tools > Restart Checkpoint commands in TotalView's Help information. In addition, you can also perform these same activities from within the CLI by using the dcheckpoint and drestart commands.
