Using Remote Display
Figure 37: Remote Display Client Window
If you are running on Windows, either click the desktop icon or go to the
TVT Remote Display item in the start menu. You’ll soon see the window
shown in Figure 37 on page 38.
This figure shows the Enter batch submission settings for the Remote Host
area. This area is visible only after you select a batch system in the Submit
to Batch Queuing System button.
If you ignore the edges of this window, there are no differences in the way
the Client window displays on Linux or on Windows.
Begin by entering the following information:
� The name of the machine upon which TotalView will execute. While the
Client can only execute on Linux x86, lLinux 86-64, and Windows XP and
Vista systems, the remote system can be any system upon which you are
licensed to run TotalView.
� Your user name, a public key file, or other ssh options. For more information,
see “Naming Intermediate Hosts” on page 39.
� Commands to execute before TotalView begins.
� The directory in which TotalView resides.
� The path name of your executable. This can either be a full path name or
a path name relative to your home directory. If you leave the executable
text area empty, TotalView begins executing in exactly the same way as if
you had typed totalview on the remote host. Generally, this means you
need to add it to your remote host’s PATH environment variable.
