| 16 | * Multi level checkpointing |
| 17 | * Node local |
| 18 | * single checkpoint per node (level 1) |
| 19 | * Buddy checkpoints (level 2) |
| 20 | * Encoding checkpoints tolerating failures of half of the nodes/processes (level 3) |
| 21 | * checkpoints on parallel file system (level 4) |
| 22 | - Differential checkpointing (available for posix/fti-ff level 4). |
| 23 | Differential checkpointing means the differential update of a |
| 24 | CP file. Unchanged application data compared to the last checkpoint |
| 25 | will not be updated and thus saves I/O time. |
| 26 | - Incremental checkpointing. Incremental checkpointing means the incremental completion |
| 27 | of a CP file. This technique serves primarily to avoid overhead |
| 28 | caused by oversaturated network channels. It may also be used to overlap |
| 29 | computation and checkpoint I/O |
| 30 | - Single file checkpoint on the PFS using HDF5 or MPI-IO |
| 31 | - Asynchronous post-processing of higher level checkpoints |
