hw-events report returns several "Warning: Cannot load data file"

[GrCorrea]

Hello,

I've been trying to get the hw-events report from a collection performed through VTune Amplifier XE, but it keeps returning the following error:

Error: Error 0x4000001e (Cannot load raw collector data)

I'm using the following command line:

amplxe-cl -report hw-events -r mobcal-cl2 -format text -group-by function

The collected data are all inmobcal-cl2 directory and I have already checked that I have access to it. I have collect these data through the following command:

amplxe-cl -collect nehalem_general-exploration -result-dir mobcal-cl2 TAppEncoder.exe -c mobcal_lowlow.cfg

My processor isa Xeon 5520.

Do you have any idea of what may be the problem?

Thanks for your help.

Other information (if necessary):

I'm usingIntel VTune Amplifier XE 2011 Update (build 1128765) andWindows Server 2008 HPC.

Thanks.

The Intel VTune Amplifier XE you're using is not the latest one. At first I would suggest to install latest update 2.
I've tried to run something similar on my PC and it works fine. Do you run this commands on a local machine, or you've collected the results on the 193.136.94.74?
Have you tried to copy results to local directory? What if:
- Collect results on the target machine in local directory and open them there
- Copy the results to a local directory and open from there?

Also, were your results collected successfully? Maybe there were errors during collection?

Regards,
Kirill

The driver collects data to a number of intermediate files and consolidates them to a *.tb6 (no underscores) file at the end of the collection. Only the intermediate files appear to exist - something went wrong before the collector finished creating the final data file. (Sorry, I don't know what might have gone wrong).

You might try collecting less data (use a shorter run, or specify "-target-duration-type long" on the command line)
