SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

15       Issue a batch request to checkpoint a batch job.
16
17       For  pbs_checkpointjob()  a "Checkpoint Job" batch request is generated
18       and sent to the server over the connection specified by  connect  which
19       is  the  return value of pbs_connect().  The server will reply when the
20       job has completed the  checkpoint  operation.   Checkpointing  is  only
21       allowed for jobs that are marked as checkpointable.
22
23       These requests requires that the issuing user have operator or adminis‐
24       trator privilege.
25
26       The argument, job_id, identifies which job is to be checkpointed, it is
27       specified in the form: sequence_number.server
28
29       The  argument,  extend,  is  reserved for implementation defined exten‐
30       sions.

DIAGNOSTICS

36       When the batch request generated by the  pbs_checkpointjob()  functions
37       has  been  completed  successfully by a batch server, the routines will
38       return 0 (zero). Otherwise, a non zero error  is  returned.  The  error
39       number is also set in pbs_errno.
