Are there any tools that people can recommend for live debugging of openstack services?

I'm looking for a mechanism where I could take a running system that isn't behaving the way I expect and somehow poke around inside the program while it keeps running. (Sort of like tracepoints in gdb.)

I've seen mention of things like twisted.manhole and eventlet.backdoor...has anyone used this sort of thing with openstack? Are there better options?

Also, has anyone ever seen an implementation of watchpoints for python? By that I mean the ability to set a breakpoint if the value of a variable changes. I found "https://sourceforge.net/blog/watchpoints-in-python/"; but it looks pretty hacky.

Thanks,
Chris
