Platform Issues when Remote Debugging
In general, when debugging programs remotely, the architecture of the remote machine must be compatible with that of the machine running TotalView. For example, you cannot perform remote debugging on a Linux x86-64 system if you launch TotalView from a Linux PowerLE system. In addition, the operating systems must also be compatible.
You must install TotalView for each host and target platform combination being debugged.
NOTE: The path to TotalView must be identical on the local and all remote systems so that TotalView can find the tvdsvr program.
TotalView assumes that you launch tvdsvr using ssh -x. If ssh is unavailable, set the TVDSVRLAUNCHCMD environment variable to the command that you use to remotely access the remote system.
NOTE: If the default single-process server launch procedure meets your needs and you’re not experiencing any problems accessing remote processes from TotalView, you probably do not need the information in this chapter. If you do experience a problem launching the server, check that the tvdsvr process is in your path.
