How to view process threads stack trace

[David Schumacher]

Is there a utility available on HPUX 10.20 that can print the stack trace for each thread in a process (similar to /usr/proc/bin/pstack on Solaris)? I need to trouble shoot a problem where a multi-threaded process has become hung.

Hi

Glance might do what you require - if not installed then there is a 60 trial version on the instal CD.

/opt/langtools/bin/puma can adopt a running process and gather stack traces for all threads. It is very different from a simple snapshot of stacks. It normally gathers a full history of stack traces at regular intervals for performance analysis.
