网页ProbeVue is IBM's implementation of a lightweight dynamic tracing environment introduced in AIX version 6.1. ProbeVue provides the ability to probe running processes in order to provide statistical analysis as well as retrieve data from the probed process.
网页Probevue supports enabling probes in more than one process at the same time. However, you will need privileges even for probing processes that belong to you. Probevue enforces a restriction that prevents processes with user-space probes from being debugged using the ptrace or procfs based APIs.
网页ProbeVue uses tracing actions or probe actions to capture information by writing the current values of global and context-specific information to a trace buffer. The information captured is called trace data. The system usually provides facilities to read the data out of the trace buffer and make it available to the users of the system.

网页The probevue command analyzes the operating system and user programs by dynamically enabling the user-specified probes, starting the actions that are associated with the probes when they are triggered, and presenting the captured trace data.
网页ProbeVue is a lightweight dynamic tracing environment introduced in AIX 6.1. This page is meant to provide the AIX administrator & ProbeVue developer with resources on best utilizing the probevue tool and understanding the Vue language.
网页In this introduction, ProbeVue is to be briefly introduced and it is shown how to write and start simple (Vue) programs. How ProbeVue Works. To use ProbeVue you don’t need a special debug version of the kernel and you don’t have to adapt applications. ProbeVue can be used on any AIX kernel starting with AIX 6.1 and any binary
