Return to job after crash #25

Open mathiasbockwoldt opened 8 years ago

mathiasbockwoldt commented 8 years ago

Is it possible to recover a running job after a crash (or SIGTERM)? I plan to start a longer RAPsearch 2 run comparing many sequences to NR, so it would be nice to be able to recover from a server crash! I saw, that RAPsearch 2 creates *.tmp files with the filename of the output file that are frequently updated as the program runs. Is it possible to restart from a certain state, saved in these tmp files to not run the full run again? Thank you!
