Focus:
The Grid Checkpoint Recovery Working Group will define a user-level API
and associated layer of services that will permit checkpointed jobs to
be recovered and continued on the same or on remote Grid resources. A
key feature of Grid Checkpoint Recovery service is recoverability of
jobs among heterogeneous Grid resources. In other words, resources on
which jobs are checkpointed need not be of the same type as those on
which the jobs are recovered, as long as the application code operating
on the checkpointing resource can be built for and run on the recovery
platforms. The benefits of a resource-independent checkpoint recovery
capability for Grids include facilitation of strategic or tactical job
preemption and migration (e.g. job load balancing among available
resources, cost-based job migration, etc.), in addition to
recoverability of Grid-managed computational jobs across heterogeneous
resources.
