Setting Breakpoints

After TotalView is running, you can start the poe process; this process will then start the program's parallel processes. Next, you will need to use the Process > Go command. TotalView responds by displaying a dialog box that asks if you want to stop the parallel tasks.

If you want to set breakpoints in your code at this point, answer Yes to stop the processes. TotalView initially stops the parallel tasks, which also allows you to set breakpoints. After a Process Window for the first parallel task appears, you can set breakpoints and control the parallel tasks in the same way as any process controlled by TotalView.

If you have already set and saved breakpoints in a file and want to reload the file, answer No. After TotalView loads these breakpoints, the parallel tasks continue to run.
