How to Easily Debug MPI programs on your HP

Customers say: 'Our HP has no debugger for MPI programs' ... Not true anymore...

You know better than anyone else when your MPI processes are hung, or not doing as expected, you need help to find out what's really happening.
Using TotalView's Message State Display, you can easily see if your program is deadlocked because a process is waiting for a message that will never come. That's important, because when your program doesn't work, we know you want a debugger that does!

Your favorite debugger on other popular platforms is now going new places: to HP. This will help to make your job even easier, leaving you more time in the all important coding phase of your software development cycle.

This talk will explain and give tips on how to debug an MPI application with TotalView, and other important HP MPI tips.
