1.1 Getting Started With the Thread Analyzer

You can start the Thread Analyzer by using the new tha command. The Thread Analyzer interface is streamlined for multi-threaded program analysis so it does not display the traditional Analyzer tabs. Instead, you see the new Races, Deadlocks, Dual Source, Race Details, and Deadlock Details tabs. If you use the Analyzer to look at the same multi-threaded program experiments you will see the traditional Analyzer tabs such as Functions, Callers-Callees, Disassembly, along with the new tabs.

The Thread Analyzer supports the following hardware and operating systems:

• The SPARC(R) v8plus, v8plusa, v8plusb, v9, v9a, and v9b architectures

• The Intel(R) x86 and AMD(R) x64 platforms

• The Solaris 9 and Solaris 10 operating systems

• SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 9, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 operating systems
