I'm not an expert in these areas so I'm not sure how this would work - though I was also wondering about it. It would be an interesting reason for people to become OpenSolaris & VirtualBox customers/users even if they aren't developing or analyzing applications for Solaris.
It seems like the solaris kernel would need to be aware of individual processes in VirtualBox, unless you simply wanted to run a dtrace script on the virtualbox process itself (but this would be limited in many ways other than the fact that you can't look at individual guest OS processes). Unfortunately, I don't think VirtualBox exposes process information - I'm guessing this would have to be implemented through the guest additions in an OS specific manner (correct me if I'm wrong). What operating systems are you interested in using as guests in this way? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ dtrace-discuss mailing list dtrace-discuss@opensolaris.org
