Figure 36: Remote Display Client
Setup
Using Remote Display
2 Type tar xvf name_of_remote_display_file.tar. This creates and populates a
remote_display/bin directory.
3 Add the remote_display directory to your PATH environment variable. If
you place this directory in your PATH, typing remote_display_client.sh
invokes the Client.
Installing on Microsoft Windows
Before you install the Client, you must have installed TotalView on your
Linux or UNIX system. The Client file, contained in your remote_display
directory, is named TVT_RDC_Installer.release_number.exe. To use the
installer:
1 Either copy the exe file to your Windows XP or Vista system or place it in
a location that is directly accessible from your Windows machine.
2 Using File Explorer, navigate to the directory containing the installer and
then double-click on the installer exe file. The installer responds by displaying
the window shown in Figure 36.
3 Click the Next button and follow the instructions on the displayed screen.
As with many Windows applications, you are asked if the installer should
create an entry in the start menu and place an icon on your desktop that,
when clicked, invokes the Client. The very last screen has a check box that
you should leave checked. This lets you confirm that Remote Display is
installed correctly.
Sample Session
The TotalView Remote Display Client is simple to use. All you need do is fill
in some information, the Client does the rest.
Invoke the Client by typing the following on a Linux system:
remote_display_client.sh
