Customer's Request

Host on which I need to install vtunes:

CPE OS Name: cpe:/o:centos:centos:7

Could you please let me know where can I download vtunes that can be installed on centos 7 /7.1 
I downloaded the latest vtunes (vtune_amplifier_xe_2017_update4.tar.gz) but that's not compatible with the above linux version

 

When I requested them to go ahead and install and send the output, kindly note below their output

The installation is the issue here. Not starting up vtunes.

Hi,

Here is the supported operational systems of VTune 2017 update 4:

• Red Hat* Enterprise Linux 6 and 7

• CentOS* versions equivalent to Red Hat* Enterprise Linux* versions listed above

• SUSE* Linux* Enterprise Server (SLES) 11 and 12

• Fedora* 24 and 25

• Ubuntu* 14.04, 16.04, 16.10 and 17.04 • Debian* 7.0 and 8.0 

The customer can also refer the release notes at https://software.intel.com/sites/default/files/managed/bf/e5/release_notes_amplifier_linux.pdf, so it should not be the issue for the customer to install VTune 2017u4 on CentOS 7/7.1. The customer can just skip the "unsupported OS" warning and go ahead with the installation.  

The issue preventing VTune installation is "ERROR: No free space to install the component. Please check that quota limit is not reached for the user." So the customer may check check this in order to get VTune installed successfully.

Thanks

The missing prerequisites also include gtk, which should be available on centos repository.
