Depending on your target, connecting to a running target results in different startup conditions, either:
RSD is enabled and contact with the Debug Agent is established. You can start working with threads because the Debug Agent has communicated all the necessary information to the debugger to start RSD.
In this case, you must also load symbols to start debugging. You do not have to load the OS symbols, because the application symbols are sufficient.
RSD is enabled and contact with the Debug Agent is established. However, the information required to start RSD is part of the OS symbols. In this case, you must load symbols before you can debug your image.
