I have sent you a private message with request for dump file and config, but it seems that you didn't get it Smile
I have sent you e-mail with same request.

I would like to investigate this problem deeper as it can be a bug in checkpointing.

Quote:

The only problem I had is that when it restored, it started the VM, but with the old IP address (I had to change the IP address, I did that by changing the .conf file).

When we are checkpointing VE we are saving all info (including network addresses and routes) to dump file. When we are restoring VE we are taking all info from dump file.
But you will ask: what in this case vzctl is setting?
The answer is: vzctl set IP address settings for this VE in VE0 (route and special mapping VE<->IP (/proc/vz/veip)).
In your case one IP address is restored in VE and different address is used by vzctl to set route in VE0.
