I'm testing checkpoints for the 32bit linux 2.4 kernel. I'm using two hosts with identical hardware and images. I'm trying to make sure that I can restore checkpoints between hosts. I noticed that although the basic counting example can be checkpointed on host0 and started on host1, my custom Matlab code cannot. System messages suggested the restart failed because the /tmp/hsperfdata_user directory didn't exist on host1. After copying this directory between hosts, the restart worked properly. I'm wondering if it is safe to do this before I put it in widespread use. Are there any other system files that should be copied also? What is the hsperfdata directory? Can this information be stored in the checkpoint itself? Thanks, Mike __________________________________________ Yahoo! DSL � Something to write home about. Just $16.99/mo. or less. dsl.yahoo.com
