vtune: Warning: EMON Collector Message: Warning: PMU counter(s) [GP0 GP1 GP2 GP3 GP4 GP5 GP6 GP7 FP0 ] is/are already in use by other software and the data collected on these counter(s) may be incorrect
vtune: Error: EMON Collector Message: ERROR - A collection is already in progress - Abort current run.
aps Error: Cannot run the collection.
When I analysis an application with aps and the application fails to run, I get errors as shown above after restarting the application with aps again.
I didn't find any processes with words like 'aps' or 'vtune'. Why are there still some processes that occupy PMU counters?
How should I reset the PMU counter or find processes that occupy PMU counters?

Any ideas?
At the present stage, we have to reboot to reset the counter to avoid occupation of unknown processes.
It's really time consuming....

Hi, you could check sep, emon or amplxe-perf processes too.

I checked all of them. There is no aps/perf/emon/sep-like processes.
More details:
When I killed my application, there are many processes `[aps] <defunct>` left. And I killed them all with `kill -9`. Will this be the reason?

I'm having exactly the same problem. APS worked for many jobs, but suddenly all failed for similar error:
>aps hostname
vtune: Error: EMON Collector Message: ERROR - A collection is already in progress - Abort current run.
aps Error: Cannot run the collection.
And I don't have any related process running at all. I run it on compute nodes of a big HPC, all the user processes got cleaned each time the job is finished.
Any solution or trick to get around this?

Sorry for a delay with response.
Please provide additional info:
- vtune version you use (I would recommend to use the latest from https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/articles/oneapi-standalone-components.html#vtune)
- the command line you use to run vtune or aps
- the list of all running processes when the issue occurred
- aps output or aps html report
Thanks, Mariya

Hi, we have not heard from you in a while. I assume the issue is solved or became unactual and closing this case.
Fell free to start a new thread in case of further assistance need.

Since this is the highest ranked answer on google but doesn't actually include the answer,
# rmmod vtsspp
on each affected machine resolved the problem for me.

Hi, I have a pretty similar one even when using the vtune-self-checker.sh .
1.Warning: PMU counter(s) [GP0 GP3 FP0 FP1 ] is/are already in use by other software and the data collected on these counter(s) may be incorrect
2. vtune: Error: 0x40000024 (No data) -- No data is collected
3. vtune: Error: Cannot load data file `/tmp/vtune-tmp-vsolontsov/self-checker-2022.02.12_10.40.36/result_ah_with_stacks/data.0/20522.perf' (Data file is corrupted).
Note `/tmp` has enough space.
The self-check log is attached (hopefully). Could you please suggest?
