Thanks for the suggestion Dietmar,
That does boot up on AWS but still fails at the vzctl chkpnt CTID --dump
stage. Suspend and resume both work. But it just won't do the filedump.
I have had a good look at Proxmox because it seems interesting but we
have so much development time invested in EC2 integration that moving
away from that platform probably isn't wise.
Does anyone have CentOS or Scientific Linux successfully check pointing
on a 64 bit EC2 instance? Knowing if this is even possible would
certainly make our decision of what to do next easier!
Cheers
Hansel
