Dashboard Perspective Menus
What follows is a comprehension list of the menu options available within the Systemtap GUI Dashboard Perspective.
File
- Import Module Location - This option allows brings up a dialogue box prompting the user with the location of a module file which is then loaded into the <a href="../concepts/modulesBrowser.html">Module Browser</a>.
<img src="../tasks/images/importDialogue.png"> - Exit - Exits Systemtap GUI.
<a name="run">Run</a>
- Run - This option runs the selected module in the <a href="../concepts/modulesBrowser.html">Module Browser</a>.
- Pause - This option pauses the selected module in the <a href="../concepts/modulesBrowser.html">Module Browser</a>. Know that this method of pausing is an illusion; the graph data is simply not updated while the script continues to run. This inability to truly pause is inherent in SystemTap itself.
- Stop - This option stops the selected module in the <a href="../concepts/modulesBrowser.html">Module Browser</a>.
