Is called by a backup process to monitor the state of the primary process and to return
control to the appropriate point (in the backup process) in the event that the primary
process fails.
This passive backup procedure is not supported in C programs. For a comparison of

CHECKOPEN
(superseded by FILE_OPEN_CHKPT_) Is called by a primary process to open a
designated file for the primary’s backup process.
This procedure does not have C syntax, because it is superseded and should not be used
for new development. This procedure is supported only for compatibility with previous
software.
CHECKPOINT
(superseded by CHECKPOINTX) Is called by a primary process to send information
about the primary process’s current executing state to the backup process.
This passive backup procedure is not supported in C programs. For a comparison of

CHECKPOINTMANY
(superseded by CHECKPOINTMANYX) Is called by a primary process to send
information about the primary process’s current executing state to the backup process.
This passive backup procedure is not supported in C programs. For a comparison of

CHECKPOINTMANYX
Is called by a primary process to send information about the primary process’s current
executing state to the backup process when more than five pieces of information are
