VTune 2015 for Xeon Phi

[Yunsong_W_]

Hi all,

I met a problem when try to proflie our xeon phi code with VTune 2015 (shown in the Figure below) :

 

Following the instruction, I find that all values of "Card number" in project properties dialog have been pre-initailized and that's a parameter we can't change manually. 

Then I followed the steps as shown in the discussion below:

https://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/topic/536153

But an error appeared when restarting the mpss service:

[root@mdlslx111 ~]# service mpss restart
Restarting mpss (via systemctl):  Job for mpss.service failed. See 'systemctl status mpss.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details.
                                                           [FAILED]

[root@mdlslx111 ~]# systemctl status mpss.service -l

Any ideas? Thank you in advance.

Hello,

Could you please try VTune Amplifer XE 2015 Update 2? I remember we had such a bug for multi-card systems and it was fixed.

Thanks & Regards, Dmitry

Hello,

I am facing the same license problem in Intel Vtune Amplifier XE 2015, 30 day trial period.

I surfed the previous questionnaire and found the following steps:

Open a command prompt on Windows and execute the following:
> cd c:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\VTune Amplifier XE 2015\
> amplxe-vars.bat
> set INTEL_LMD_DEBUG=1
> amplxe-cl > c:\temp\vtune_log.txt 2>&1
> set INTEL_LMD_DEBUG=0

After that, I am stuck as to what next??

Can someone please help me get it done.

Thank-You

To Trishla:

Not sure that the licensing issue is connected with Xeon Phi probelm in this thread - so it is worth to start a new one.

Thanks & Regards, Dmitry
