Starting TotalView on an RMS Job

To start a parallel job under TotalView control, use TotalView as if you were debugging prun:

{ totalview | totalviewcli } prun –a prun-command-line

TotalView starts and shows you the machine code for RMS prun. Since you’re not usually interested in debugging this code, use the Process > Go command to let the program run.

CLI: dfocus p dgo

The RMS prun command executes and starts all MPI processes. After TotalView acquires them, it asks if you want to stop them at startup. If you answer yes, TotalView halts them before they enter the main program. You can then create breakpoints.
