Autolaunch Sequence

If you want to know more about autolaunch, here is the sequence of actions carried out by you, TotalView, and tvdsvr:

1. With the File > New Program command, you specify the host name of the machine on which you want to debug a remote process, as described in Starting the TotalView Debugger Server.
    
2. TotalView begins listening for incoming connections.
    
3. TotalView launches the tvdsvr process with the server launch command. (Single Process Server Launch Command describes this command.)
    
4. The tvdsvr process starts on the remote machine.
    
5. The tvdsvr process establishes a connection with TotalView.

The following figure summarizes these actions.
