Mounting the /proc File System

To debug programs on SunOS 5 with TotalView, you need to mount the /proc file system.

If you receive one of the following errors from TotalView, the /proc file system might not be mounted:

job_t::launch, creating process: process not found

Error launching process while trying to read ­dynamic symbols

Creating Process... Process not found Clearing Thrown Flag Operation Attempted on an unbound process object

To determine whether the /proc file system is mounted, enter the appropriate command from the following table.

 

Operating System	Command
SunOS 5	% /sbin/mount | grep /proc /proc on /proc read/write/setuid on ...

If you receive one of these messages from the mount command, the /proc file system is mounted.
