We are running Gurobi solves that have been taking 500,000+ seconds on a 64-core system with 488GB of RAM. We would like to run Gurobi inside docker so that we can checkpoint it and restart when our server is reboot (our server is reboot unpredictably to install software patches, and we have no control over this process).

Does anyone have experience doing this? I am particularly concerned about how Gurobi will reconnect to the token server.

  Gurobi does not keep an open connection to the token server. So, whenever it needs to check the license, it will connect to the token server with a fresh connection. So, unless you change the DNS of the token server on the way, I think your approach should work.
