Intel® VTune™ Profiler Command Line Interface

Intel® VTune™ Profiler provides a command line interface called the vtune tool. This is especially useful for remote analysis, scripted commands and conducting regular performance regression checks to monitor software performance over time.

The vtune command line interface includes an extensive set of options that you can use to execute almost every task that you handle through the GUI. You can initiate analysis via the command line, running it as a background task or on a remote system, then view the result or generate a report at your convenience.

Use the vtune tool for these purposes:

Note

  • See the VTune Profiler CLI Cheat Sheet quick reference on VTune Profiler command line interface.
  • To access the most current command line documentation for vtune, enter: vtune -help.
  • When you perform a task through the VTune Profiler GUI, you can use the command generation feature to display the corresponding command and save it for future use.
  • You cannot create a project from the command line. You must use the GUI for this purpose.
