Hi

Here are two versions:

- You can get a version at ftp://ftp.interworks.org/pub/comp.hp/ >
and downloading the file trace-1.6.tar.gz.

Note: This is unsupported and the Response Center cannot assist
in the use of the appication, but customers who try it seem
to be happy with it.

- A public domain utility called trace(1) written by Kartik
Subbarao HP is available at http://hpux.csc.liv.ac.uk/
(then search keyword: trace).

Note: The trace(1) command will perform system call tracing,
but it is also an unsupported utility.

Hi,

tusc can monitor running processes and report all sorts of info on what that process is doing, opening files, writing etc.

Heres some example output from tusc running on an oracle user process weve been monitoring to see what its doing;

getmsg(4, 0x680f1324, 0x680f1330, 0x680f133c) .................................. = 0
write(0, "g e t m s g ( 4 , 0 x 6 8 0 f ".., 86) ............................. = 86
select(5, 0x680f1340, NULL, NULL, NULL) ........................................ = 1
getmsg(4, 0x680f1324, 0x680f1330, 0x680f133c) .................................. = 0
write(0, "w r i t e ( 0 , " w r i ".., 87) ............................. = 87
select(5, 0x680f1340, NULL, NULL, NULL) ........................................ = 1
getmsg(4, 0x680f1324, 0x680f1330, 0x680f133c) .................................. = 0
write(0, "s e l e c t ( 5 , 0 x 6 8 0 f ".., 86) ............................. = 86
select(5, 0x680f1340, NULL, NULL, NULL) ........................................ = 1
getmsg(4, 0x680f1324, 0x680f1330, 0x680f133c) .................................. = 0

tusc shows the status of the running processes(IPC's) at the time of execution ,while trace does the same but after execution
