TotalView Family Differences
This section describes the TotalView Enterprise, TotalView Team, and TotalView Developer debuggers. Each of these supports the use of the CLI debugger as well.
NOTE >> The most fundamental differences between TotalView Team and TotalView Enterprise are the way resources are shared and used. When you purchase TotalView Team, you are purchasing “tokens” that represent the number of job processes that can be run at a single time. For example, if you have 64 tokens available, 64 users could each debug a one-process job; or two users could each debug a 32-process job. In contrast, a TotalView Enterprise license is based on the number of users and the number of licensed processors. You’ll find more precise information on our web site.
The basic differences are:
