Attaching Using the Unattached Page

To attach to a process using the Unattached Page, go to the Root Window and complete the following steps:

1. Select the Unattached Page Tab.

   This page lists the process ID, status, and name of each process associated with your username. The processes that appear dimmed are those that are being debugged or those that TotalView will not allow you to debug (for example, the TotalView process itself).

   The processes at the top of this figure are all local. The remaining processes are remote.

   If you are debugging a remote process, this page also shows processes running under your username on each remote host name. You can attach to any of these remote processes. For more information on remote debugging, refer to Starting the TotalView Debugger Server and TotalView Debugger Server (tvdsvr) Command Syntax.

2. Dive into the process you wish to debug by double-clicking on it.

   A Process Window appears. The right arrow points to the current program counter (PC), indicating where the program was executing when TotalView attached to it.
