How do i bebug this issue.
ompi-checkpoint is exactly ompi-checkpoint + sending SIGTERM to your app. If ompi-checkpoint finishes, then your app is not dealing with SIGTERM correctly. Make sure you're not ignoring SIGTERM, you need to either handle it or let it kill your app. If it's a multithreaded app, make sure you can "distribute" the SIGTERM to ALL the threads, i.e., when you receive SIGTERM, notify all other threads that they should join or quit.
