Hi Justin!<br>
<br>
Dumping the entire Xserver is problematic, as it uses a variety of
devices that we don't currently<br>
support(i.e. gpu). It actually looks like dumping Xapp is a lot
easier then dumping entire X server,<br>
still, it requires good knowledge of X internals.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Ruslan<br>

would like to suspend the entire X session to disk, run a lot
of HPC workloads with high CPU and RAM requirements for 10-12
hours (possibly from runlevel 3), and then restore the X
session. I saw in the usage scenarios it wouldn't work for
specific applications but would it be possible for the entire
X session? I also saw the note about dump/restore of apps
connected to an Xserver not being possible but I don't know if
it would be any different when dumping the entire Xserver.<br>
