You can strip debug information from executable to make them smaller, but Aprobe relies on certain debug information to operate correctly. When using stripped executables you should include ADI files to provide the symbol information to Aprobe at runtime. You can generate ADI files using apmkadi.

Problems with stripped executables

When using stripped PowerAda executables on AIX you will get the following error if you do not provide the proper ADI file:

 (F) PowerAda symbol 'xreraise()' unavailable for address 0x11a3fd5c.
      Check that symbols are available for module 'fdpdriver.eab'.
