NAME

       ompi-restart, orte-restart - Restart a previously checkpointed parallel
       job using the Open PAL Checkpoint/Restart Service (CRS)

       NOTE: ompi-restart, and orte-restart are all exact  synonyms  for  each
       other.  Using  any of the names will result in exactly identical behav-
       ior.

SYNOPSIS

       ompi-restart [ options ] <GLOBAL SNAPSHOT HANDLE>

Options

       ompi-restart will attempt to restart a previously checkpointed parallel
       job  from  the global snapshot handle reference returned by ompi_check-
       point.

       <GLOBAL SNAPSHOT HANDLE>
                 The global snapshot handle reference returned by  ompi_check-
                 point,  used  to  restart the job. This is required to be the
                 last argument to this command.

       -h | --help
                 Display help for this command

       -p | --preload
                 Preload the checkpoint files on  the  remote  systems  before
                 restarting the application. Disabled by default.

       --fork    Fork  off  a  new process, which is the restarted process. By
                 default, the restarted process will replace ompi-restart.

       -s | --seq
                 The sequence number of the checkpoint  to  restart  from.  By
                 default,  the  most recent sequence number is used (specified
                 by -1).

       -hostfile | --hostfile
                 The hostfile from which to restart the application. Useful in
                 unscheduled  environments.  (Same  behavior  as --machinefile
                 option)

       -machinefile | --machinefile
                 The machinefile from which to restart the application. Useful
                 in  unscheduled  environments.  (Same  behavior as --hostfile
                 option)

       -v | --verbose
                 Enable verbose output for debugging.

       -gmca | --gmca <key> <value>
                 Pass global MCA parameters that are applicable  to  all  con-
                 texts.  <key> is the parameter name; <value> is the parameter
                 value.

       -mca | --mca <key> <value>
                 Send arguments to various MCA modules.
