I am trying to run Intel V Tune on my workstation, but I am not able to run it at all.
The following are the outputs of the respective commands

HW event-based analysis (counting mode)
Example of analysis types: Performance Snapshot
Collection: Fail
vtune: Error: This analysis type is not applicable to the system because VTune Profiler cannot recognize the processor. If this is an old Intel processor, please refer to the minimum hardware requirements in the release note. If this is a new Intel processor, please check for an updated version of VTune Profiler. If this is an unreleased Intel processor, please contact Online Service Center for an NDA product package.
vtune: Error: This analysis type is not applicable to the current machine microarchitecture.
Instrumentation based analysis check
Example of analysis types: Hotspots and Threading with user-mode sampling
Collection: Fail
vtune: Error: Option 'pmu-type' received value from the next argument: '--event-config=CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.THREAD,CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.REF_TSC:sample:sa=2900000,INST_RETIRED.ANY:sample:sa=2900000,CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.DISTRIBUTED,UOPS_RETIRED.RETIRE_SLOTS:sample:sa=2000003', but it seems to be an option. Use '-option=value' declaration form or make sure that value is not missed
HW event-based analysis check
Example of analysis types: Hotspots with HW event-based sampling, HPC Performance Characterization, etc.
Collection: Fail
vtune: Error: This analysis type is not applicable to the system because VTune Profiler cannot recognize the processor. If this is an old Intel processor, please refer to the minimum hardware requirements in the release note. If this is a new Intel processor, please check for an updated version of VTune Profiler. If this is an unreleased Intel processor, please contact Online Service Center for an NDA product package.
HW event-based analysis check
Example of analysis types: Microarchitecture Exploration
Collection: Fail
vtune: Error: This analysis type is not applicable to the current machine microarchitecture.
HW event-based analysis with uncore events
Example of analysis types: Memory Access
Collection: Fail
vtune: Error: This analysis type is not applicable to the system because VTune Profiler cannot recognize the processor. If this is an old Intel processor, please refer to the minimum hardware requirements in the release note. If this is a new Intel processor, please check for an updated version of VTune Profiler. If this is an unreleased Intel processor, please contact Online Service Center for an NDA product package.
vtune: Error: This analysis type is not applicable to the current machine microarchitecture.
vtune: Error: Cannot collect memory bandwidth data. Make sure the sampling driver is installed and enabled on your system. See the Sampling Drivers help topic for more details. Note that memory bandwidth collection is not possible if you are profiling inside a virtualized environment.
HW event-based analysis with stacks
Example of analysis types: Hotspots with HW event-based sampling and call stacks
Collection: Fail
vtune: Error: This analysis type is not applicable to the system because VTune Profiler cannot recognize the processor. If this is an old Intel processor, please refer to the minimum hardware requirements in the release note. If this is a new Intel processor, please check for an updated version of VTune Profiler. If this is an unreleased Intel processor, please contact Online Service Center for an NDA product package.
HW event-based analysis with context switches
Example of analysis types: Threading with HW event-based sampling
Collection: Fail
vtune: Error: This analysis type is not applicable to the system because VTune Profiler cannot recognize the processor. If this is an old Intel processor, please refer to the minimum hardware requirements in the release note. If this is a new Intel processor, please check for an updated version of VTune Profiler. If this is an unreleased Intel processor, please contact Online Service Center for an NDA product package.
vtune: Error: This analysis type is not applicable to the current machine microarchitecture.
Checking DPC++ application as prerequisite for GPU analyses: Fail
Unable to run DPC++ application on GPU connected to this system. If you are using an Intel GPU and want to verify profiling support for DPC++ applications, check these requirements:
* Install Intel(R) GPU driver.
* Install Intel(R) Level Zero GPU runtime.
* Install Intel(R) oneAPI DPC++ Runtime and set the environment.
The check observed a product failure on your system.
Review errors in the output above to fix a problem or contact Intel technical support.
The following analyses have failed on the system:
* Performance Snapshot
* Hotspots and Threading with user-mode sampling
* Hotspots with HW event-based sampling, HPC Performance Characterization, etc.
* Microarchitecture Exploration
* Memory Access
* Hotspots with HW event-based sampling and call stacks
* Threading with HW event-based sampling
* GPU Compute/Media Hotspots (characterization mode)
* GPU Compute/Media Hotspots (source analysis mode)

According to the system requirements, the latest version of VTune no longer supports the 2nd generation of Xeon, or Cascade Lake. Only Ice Lake and newer are supported. If you can get the 2024 release, it should work.
CPU analysis
- VTune™ Profiler now supports the following generations of processors in client and server platforms
- Server CPUs: Intel® Xeon® processors based on Ice Lake and newer families.
- Client CPUs: Intel® Core™ processors based on Ice Lake and newer families.
Note: We do not support Atom-based platforms, Intel® Xeon Phi™, or micro-server platforms(before Intel Atom® P5900 series/Snow Ridge).
- The 2025 version of VTune™ Profiler does not support processors older than the versions listed above. To analyze performance on older processors, use an older version of VTune™ Profiler.
