Problem in using trace command for HP-UX

Rui Vilao — Thu, 08 Nov 2001 18:55:52 GMT

Greetings,

I have downloaded trace 1.6 from the porting center.

When I try to use it, I get the error:

# /opt/trace/bin/trace -p 530
KI_TRACE_GET: Bad address

I have compiled it and the problem remains...

Any clue on this?

TIA,

Kind Regards,

Rui.

IIRR, Trace does not work on Multi-processor systems. If your system has multi-processors,
use tusc , which can be downloaded from
the same site as trace.(hp porting site).

What version of HP-UX are you running?

Did do you download the precompiled stuff for 10.10 or 10.20 or did you get the source code and compile it yourself?

If you are on 11.X and didn't compile your own version, I could see where stuff wouldn't work right.

Is this running on a multi-cpu server ? If I'm not mistaken trace can only work on a single-cpu system. I might be wrong.

trace on 10.X is rather picky on things like 700 versus 800 and all that. i am pretty sure it does not exist at all for HP-UX 11, where one should be using tusc (ftp.cup.hp.com/dist/networking/tools/)

Hi,

Thanks to all for your contribution!

Well I am trying to make it work on a K multi-processor system running HP-U 10.20...

I have tied it with the 10.20 pre-compiled version and tried to compile it again the problem remains...

But... it works on my production environment and it does not on the
development environment (both 10.20 multi-processor)!
