+Checkpointing a container is the functionality to create a stateful copy of a
+running container. Once you have a stateful copy of a container, you could
+move it to a different computer for debugging or similar purposes.
+
+If you move the checkpointed container data to a computer that's able to restore
+it, that restored container continues to run at exactly the same
+point it was checkpointed. You can also inspect the saved data, provided that you
+have suitable tools for doing so.
+
+## Operations {#operations}
+
+### `post` checkpoint the specified container {#post-checkpoint}
+
+Tell the kubelet to checkpoint a specific container from the specified Pod.
+
+Consult the [Kubelet authentication/authorization reference](/docs/reference/command-line-tools-reference/kubelet-authentication-authorization)
+for more information about how access to the kubelet checkpoint interface is
+controlled.
+
+The kubelet will request a checkpoint from the underlying
+{{<glossary_tooltip term_id="cri" text="CRI">}} implementation. In the checkpoint
+request the kubelet will specify the name of the checkpoint archive as
+`<containerID>.tar` and also request to store the checkpoint archive in the
+`checkpoints` directory below its root directory (as defined by `--root-dir`).
+This defaults to `/var/lib/kubelet/checkpoints`. If an existing checkpoint
+archive will be overwritten depends on the underlying CRI implementation.
+
+The checkpoint archive is in _tar_ format, and could be listed using an implementation of
+[`tar`](https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7908799/xcu/tar.html). The contents of the
+archive depend on the underlying CRI implementation (the container runtime on that node).
