TotalView must be able to execute a command on the target system from the development host. By default, this version uses the
ssh -x command. However, we suggest that you set up
ssh to execute commands without requiring a password.
Your program’s executable file must be visible from both the development host and the target system. Do this by placing the executables in a directory visible to both machines through the same path. Having the executable visible in separate directories that are accessed through the same path on both machines also works. However, if you're using the cross development compilers, you'll probably want the same copy of the executable visible from both machines anyway.
The SiCortex version of TotalView does not use the same naming conventions used on other versions. Instead, the command has an
sc prefix. For example, use the
sctv8 or
sctotalview commands instead of
tv8 or
totalview8 to invoke the GUI version. Use
sctv8cli or
sctotalviewcli instead of
tv8cli or
totalviewcli to invoke the CLI.
When you use the –-remote command-line option and the program’s name is
srun, TotalView makes a local copy of
srun using
scp. It also substitutes the name of the local copy for the program name. This local copy is deleted when TotalView exits.
