Preparing a Target Linux* System for Energy Analysis

When collecting energy data on a target Linux device, make sure to:

Install the Intel® SoC Watch Collector

If you need to collect energy data on one system and you wish to view the results on another system, you need to install the Intel SoC Watch collector.
  1. Copy the
    system_studio_target.tgz
     package to the target Linux* system. The package can be found in the following locations on the host system with Intel System Studio installed:
    • On Linux systems:
      /opt/intel/system_studio_<version>/targets/system_studio_target.tgz
    • On Windows* systems:
      C:\Program Files (x86)\IntelSWTools\system_studio_<version>\Targets\system_studio_target.tgz
  2. Log in to the target system as the root user.
  3. Extract the Intel SoC Watch package to the target Linux system. The
    <extract_dir>/system_studio_target/socwatch_linux_v<version>_x<architecture>
     directory is created.
  4. Copy the Intel SoC Watch package to a working directory: 
    > mkdir -p /home/socwatch
> cp <extract_dir>/system_studio_target/socwatch_linux_v<version>_x<architecture> /home/socwatch/ .

Install Drivers

 directory.
