Before you can use the Intel Advisor advixe-cl and advixe-gui commands or display the advixe-cl(1) man page, you must first set up your command shell environment. Use the provided shell script advixe-vars.sh or advixe-vars.csh:
- Locate the directory where the advixe-vars script file was installed. If you accepted the default location when installing Intel Advisor, the location is /opt/intel/advisor_xe_2016.
- Open a command window and type the following source command to execute the script. For example, when using the bash shell: source /opt/intel/advisor_xe_2016/advixe-vars.sh
The script execution displays the product name and the build number. You can now use the advixe-cl and advixe-gui commands as well as display the advixe-cl(1) man page.
Example
Use the csh (C) shell and the default installation location:
- $ source /opt/intel/advisor_xe_2016/advixe-vars.csh
