Hi José,Thanks for the feedback. In my tests I had to give the job a SIGSTOP prior to checkpointing it for it to work. I'll shall look further into it and probably contact the BLCR developers, but in the meantime I hope your alteration works for you.

Thaks, MarkI have a doubt about your code. Why do you stop the job before checkpointing it? I have probed that, but the checkpoint crashs. So, I have removed those commands. I don't find any instructions about that in the BLCR web page.Saludos, José El Wednesday 27 February 2008 10:15:12 Mark Calleja escribió:Hi José, I'm glad you've got a version to suit your needs. Just in case, I've updated my online version (with documentation to reflect it) to perform a similar function. Cheers, Mark José M.

What you suggest should not be too difficult to add, so if you're interested I can send you a modified version of the code for you to test. Cheers, Mark José M. Martín wrote:Thanks for your contribution. I used it to my Condor cluster and it works greatly. Only a suggestion: you can trap Condor's signals to force to your programs to make a checkpoint. When Condor vacates a program, it sends it a signal (killsig) (http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/manual/v7.0/2_7Priorities_Preemption.htm l# SECTION00373000000000000000) Trapping this signal, programs could make a checkpoint before stop.
