Abstract

A method for enhanced restart of a core dumping application is provided. The method includes stopping a plurality of threads in an address space, except for the thread performing the core dump. Computational segments are remapped to client segments. Each open file descriptor in the address space is closed. The application is terminated and the client segments are flushed to external storage.
