Hi,
The instructions you found are now obsolete. I'll update them, thank you for
pointing out.
The new procedure to use uncoordinated checkpoint is now
mpirun -mca vprotocol pessimist -mca pml ob1,v [regular arguments].
The version available in trunk does not support actual restart due to lack of
runtime support, and is limited to performance evaluation of FT cost without
failures. There is an ongoing proposal to include such support in the main
branch. However, we do have a branched version of Open MPI including all the
necessary support that I can be provided on request. Please also consider that
this is an ongoing research effort that has not yet matured enough to be used
in a production environment.
