Hi all,

For the purposes of getting a demonstration running, we have decided to attach 
both the IRC server and IRC client to the dmtcp_coordinator. We are able to 
successfully checkpoint all programs, with the client and server running on 
different virtual machines. We can restart everything when starting the IRC 
server first, but if we kill the IRC server while the clients are running, the 
server gives us the following error when attempting to restart.

Message: Coordinator in a funny state.  Peers exist, not restarting,
but not in a running state.  Checkpointing?
Or maybe restarting and running with peers existing?

It then advised to use the utils/dmtcp_backtrace.py utility to dump the error 
output, which I have attached below.

Examing stack for call frames from:
  /usr/local/bin/dmtcp_restart
FORMAT:  FNC: ..., followed by file:line_number (most recent first).

Any ideas? Is there a reason that we wouldn't be able to restart the server 
while the clients are still running?

Thanks,
Nick
