Current runc man pages are ugly (no proper man page formatting) and very short (mostly just a copy-paste from the "runc <command> --help" output. They are also somewhat obsoleted as not all CLI updates were propagated to man/*. This commits makes the first step to solving this. In short: - added some more information about some options; - lots of formatting fixes; - use references to other man pages and web pages; - fix SYNOPSYS (formatting, mostly); - removed the repeated description of <container_id> from every page; - added SEE ALSO; - something else I forgot.

# NAME
|
|
**runc-checkpoint** - checkpoint a running container
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
**runc checkpoint** [_option_ ...] _container-id_
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
The **checkpoint** command saves the state of the running container instance
|
|
with the help of **criu**(8) tool, to be restored later.
|
|
|
|
# OPTIONS

**--image-path** _path_
|
|
: Set path for saving criu image files. The default is *./checkpoint*.
|
|
|
|
**--work-path** _path_

|
: Set path for saving criu work files and logs. The default is to reuse the
|
|
image files directory.
|
|
|
|
**--parent-path** _path_
|
|
: Set path for previous criu image files, in pre-dump.
|
|
|
|
**--leave-running**
|
|
: Leave the process running after checkpointing.
|
|
|
|
**--tcp-established**
|
|
