Verify Your Installation

Use a self-check script to validate the installation of Intel® VTune™ Profiler on your system. Ensure that you installed appropriate drivers for data collection. You can run this script on a standalone system or a cluster environment.

The vtune-self-checker script is available in the <install-dir>/bin64 directory on the Windows or Linux system where you installed VTune Profiler. This script runs several representative analysis types on a sample with reliable hot spots. After execution, the script generates a log file that contains diagnostics on the success or failure of the checks. The self-checker script verifies the operation of these analyses:

The result of the self-check provides these details:

Use the --log-dir option when running the script to specify a location for the log file to be stored. This option is useful when running the script on a compute node through a job scheduler.
