Figure 53: Start a<br />

New Process<br />

Loading Programs<br />

command, which is located in the Root and Process Windows, loads local<br />

and remote programs, core files, and processes that are already running.<br />

When entering a program’s name, you can use a full or relative path name<br />

in the Executable and Core File fields. If you enter a file name, <strong>TotalView</strong><br />

searches for it in the list of directories named using the File > Search Path<br />

command or listed in your PATH environment variable.<br />

CLI: dset EXECUTABLE_PATH<br />

Your license limits the number of programs you can load. For example,<br />

<strong>TotalView</strong> Individual limits you to sixteen processes or threads.<br />

Loading Programs Using the GUI<br />

The Program page within the File > New Program dialog box lets you load<br />

programs in three ways by selecting commands in the top left area of the<br />

Program tab. You can:<br />

� Start a new process<br />

Type the path name in the Program area within the Program tab. (See<br />

Figure 53.)<br />

You can either type the name of your program in the Program area or<br />

press the Browse button to look for the file. Because <strong>TotalView</strong> remembers<br />

programs you’ve previously debugged, you may find your program in<br />

this pulldown list.<br />

If the program is to be executed on another computer, you can name that<br />

computer by selecting the computer’s name in the host area. If that computer<br />

isn’t on the displayed list, select Add host (which is an entry in the<br />

list on the right) and enter its name in the displayed dialog box.<br />
