Tools > Restart Checkpoint

Use this dialog box to restore and restart all of the checkpointed processes. By default, TotalView attaches to the base process. If parallel processes are related to this base process, TotalView attaches to them. If you do not want TotalView to automatically attach to them, deselect the Attach parallel option.

Name

Names a previously saved checkpoint file.

Remote Host

Names the remote host upon which the restart will occur.

Group ID

Names the control group into which TotalView places all created processes

Options

Indicates control options that you may find useful, as follows:

Attach parallel

If selected, TotalView attaches to parallel processes as they are being created. If this item is not selected, TotalView only attaches to the base process.

Unpark

Select this checkbox if the checkpoint was created outside of TotalView or if you did not select the Park checkbox within the Tools > Restart Checkpoint dialog box when you created the checkpoint file.

After Restart

Defines the state of the process both before and after the checkpoint. You can use one of the following options:

Halt

Parallel processes are held immediately after the place where the checkpoint occurred. TotalView attaches to these created parallel processes. (This is the default.)

Go

Checkpointed parallel processes are started and TotalView attaches to the created processes.

Detach

Checkpointed process are started. TotalView does not attempt to attach to them.

If an error occurs while attempting to restart the program from the checkpoint, information is displayed in the Error area.

The CLI's drestart command performs the same operations as this command.
