Mounting the /proc File System

To debug programs on SunOS 5 with TotalView, you need to mount the /proc file system.

If you receive one of the following errors from TotalView, the /proc file system might not be mounted:

• job_t::launch, creating process: process not found

• Error launching process while trying to read dynamic symbols

• Creating Process... Process not found
Clearing Thrown Flag
Operation Attempted on an unbound process object

To determine whether the /proc file system is mounted, enter the appropriate command from the following table.


Operating System	Command
SunOS 5	% /sbin/mount \| grep /proc /proc on /proc read/write/setuid on ...

If you receive one of these messages from the mount command, the /proc file system is mounted.
