Loading Programs Using the CLI

When using the CLI, you can load programs in a number of ways. Here are a few examples.

Action

Method

Load a session

dsession -load session-name

Loads the session directly into TotalView.

Start a new process

dload -e executable

Open a core file

dattach -c corefile -e executable

If TotalView is not yet running, you can also provide the core file as a startup argument, like so:

totalview executable corefile [ options ]

Open a replay recording session file

dattach -c replay-recording ‑e executable

If TotalView is not yet running, you can also provide the replay recording file as a startup argument, like so:

totalview executablereplay-recording-file[ options ]

Attach to a program using its process ID

dattach executable pid

Load an MPI job using the POE configuration and the hfiles starter argument. In this example, two processes will be used across nodes.

dload -mpi POE -np 2 -nodes
 -starter_args "hfile=~/my_hosts"
