Hello,

I'm not aware that OSCAR support job suspension and/or checkpointing
directly from PBS (this is avalaible only for UNICOS and Irix as stated
in the openPBS FAQ).

At the time of this writing, if you need checkpointing you have to
program it yourself in your application.

However, the 7.0 release of LAM/MPI include some automatic
checkpointing code for your parallel application :

"Resource scheduling is a big part of what systems administrators do every day,
added Jeff Squyres, senior research associate in the Open Systems Lab and lead 
developer of LAM/MPI. "The ability to checkpoint and restart parallel MPI jobs 
. even legacy MPI applications . is a critical feature in terms of logistical 
efficiency and fault tolerance."
