This article describes the status of checkpoint/restore integration with containerd, and how to use it.

Container Checkpoint/Restore

Pull "ubuntu:latest" image if not already available locally.

ctr image pull docker.io/library/redis:alpine

Create and run a container with ID "looper"

ctr run -d docker.io/library/redis:alpine redis

Create container checkpoint

ctr c checkpoint --rw --task redis checkpoint/redis:20230226

Restore container from checkpoint

ctr c restore --rw --live redis-debug checkpoint/redis:20230226
