That's excellent! Thank you for the reply. 





Hi Gary 


<blockquote>



1. Can I safely remove them? I would think so, but want to double-check before I hose something up. 





Yes you can removed them. Once the VM is running again the file is not used anymore. In case you need to save the VM again a new checkpoint is generated 

<blockquote>


2. Should they have been deleted once the vm was successfully resumed?

At least this should be configurable in the driver file. Currently when you save a VM we move previous checkpoint files to checkpoint.<epoch> in case you need them if something goes wrong. See [1], I've filled an issue to take a look at this [2]
