8. What happens if the DMTCP coordinator ( checkpoint control process) dies?
[ The same thing that happens if a user process dies. We kill the whole
computation, and restart. At restart, we use a new coordinator.
Coordinators are stateless. ]
My experience is different:
I downloaded dmtcp and followed the quick-start guide:
(1) "dmtcp_coordinator" on one terminal
(2) "dmtcp_checkpoint bash" on another terminal
Then I:
(3) pkill -9 dmtcp_coordinator
... oops - 'bash' died.
I didn't even try to take a checkpoint :(
