  Hello, I want to run an ansys fluent job with sbatch mode on hpc, the time that my job requires is longer than the time limit of the cluster. I read about checkpointing but did not understand how to use it very well. Is there any resources I can use to learn about it? What is the difference between checkpointing and autosave?
