Specifies the hard or soft limit, or both limits for the elapsed time checkpointing a job can take. When the soft limit is exceeded, LoadLeveler will attempt to abort the checkpoint and allow the job to continue. If the checkpoint is not able to be aborted and the hard limit is exceeded, LoadLeveler will terminate the job.
The syntax is:
ckpt_time_limit = hardlimit,softlimit
Some examples of the checkpoint time limit include:
ckpt_time_limit = 00:10:00,00:05:00 ckpt_time_limit = 12:30,7:10 ckpt_time_limit = rlim_infinity ckpt_time_limit = unlimited
