OPTIONS

22       --image-path path
23              Set path for saving criu image files. The  default  is  ./check‐
24              point.
25
26
27       --work-path path
28              Set  path for saving criu work files and logs. The default is to
29              reuse the image files directory.
30
31
32       --parent-path path
33              Set path for previous criu image files, in pre-dump.
34
35
36       --leave-running
37              Leave the process running after checkpointing.
38
39
40       --tcp-established
41              Allow checkpoint/restore of  established  TCP  connections.  See
42              criu --tcp-establised option ⟨https://criu.org/CLI/opt/--tcp-es‐
43              tablished⟩.

46       --ext-unix-sk
47              Allow checkpoint/restore of  external  unix  sockets.  See  criu

58
59
60       --status-fd fd
61              Pass a file descriptor fd to criu.  Once  lazy-pages  server  is
