Submitting a Checkpointing Job With QMON

The submission of checkpointing jobs with QMON is identical to submitting regular batch jobs, with the addition of specifying an appropriate checkpointing environment. As explained in Submitting Advanced Jobs With QMON, the Submit Job dialog box provides a field for the checkpointing environment that is associated with a job. Click the button next to that field to opens the following Selection dialog box.

You can select a suitable checkpoint environment from the list of available checkpoint objects. Ask your system administrator for information about the properties of the checkpointing environments that are installed at your site. For more information, refer to Configuring Checkpointing Environments in Sun N1 Grid Engine 6.1 Administration Guide.
