Debugging Processes That Call the fork() Function
By default, TotalView places breakpoints in all processes in a share group. (For information on share groups, see “Organizing Chaos”.) When any process in the share group reaches a breakpoint, TotalView stops all processes in the control group. This means that TotalView stops the control group that contains the share group. This control can contain more than one share group.
To override these defaults:
1 Dive into the line number to display the Action Point > Properties Dialog Box.
2 Clear the Plant in share group check box and make sure that the Group radio button is selected.
CLI: dset SHARE_ACTION_POINT false
