[Condor-users] snapshot of a job

[Mag Gam <magawake@xxxxxxxxx>]

I understand the crash and recovery feature of condor in vanilla
universe if broken. However, I have heard people using vmware or xen
to achieve this since its much easier.  Has anyone done this before?

Basically, I run jobs which take several days to run and it would be
nice to have to take a periodic snapshot and when the job fails I just
play the latest VM image to I don´t loose all my results.
