    Eric,
    
    Thanks for your suggestion. I checked my PATH setting, it does include the path to mpirun which is in LAM/bin directory. If the problem is from crtcp, can we make some methods to solve it?

It works fine with single program and MPI program running on one node before.Today when I tried to checkpoint a MPI program (the "hello" program under example directory with LAM package)running on one node of our cluster, the MPI program could be checkpointed and context file is saved. But when I try to restart it, it returns "Error in exec" to the screen.I can't figure out where the problem is.Could you please give me some suggestion?
