Automatically Launching a Process on a Remote Server

In most cases, loading a process to debug on a remote server is no different than debugging a process on a local host. Using the New Program dialog, TotalView can automatically launch the process tvdsvr on the remote computer.

To launch a process on a remote server:

1	Start TotalView on your local host.

2	From the New Program dialog, select Add Host:

 

The Add New Host dialog launches.

3	Add either the IP address or the name of the remote host, then click ok. For example:

 

 

At this point, you can load your program, and begin debugging.

If this simple procedure did not work for you, your system may not support TotalView’s default autolaunching. You can disable autolaunch or reconfigure some of your settings. See “Troubleshooting Server Autolaunch”.
