Setting TotalView preferences
Before running and debugging jobs with TotalView, you should set the following
options in your
$HOME/.preferences.tvd file:
◆
dset ignore_control_c {false} to allow TotalView to respond to
<CTRL-C>
◆
dset ask_on_dlopen {false} to tell TotalView not to prompt about
stopping processes that use the
dlopen system call
