I flashed a drive os 5.2.6 on our pegasus board, everything looks fine both the host and target except the previous problem using nsight nsys, I still cannot get the cuda information.
I used nsight system 2021.4.1 CLI on the target and collect the report and transfer to the x86 host for displaying the information.
@VickNV Actually I used CLI when I first tried my profiling on drive os 5.1.6 so I think I am familiar with the process. But anything special to pay attention to?
I still get the same error saying that cuda collection stopped and no cuda profiling is done (only the CPU stuff, context et al, which are not of interest to me now).
Any clue on this? I have 5.1.6/5.2.6 not working, but 5.2.0 OK.
Please share the detailed steps. Thanks.
@VickNV Here is the screen dump:

How you set up nsys on the target system? Which version are yous using?
@VickNV I use Nsight Systems 2021.4 (Arm Server CLI only .deb Installer) and then install it using sudo apt-get install. version 2021.4.1
Please try with the one installed by SDK Manager (in /opt/nvidia/nsight-systems/2021.2.2/).
@VickNV I have to reflash the system, someone messed up the system. I will get back to you when it is ready. Thanks
Was nsight system in host components installed successfully in sdkmanager?
@VickNV I have tried nsight system 2021.2.1 and it works!!! Thanks for your support and finally solved the profiling problem!!
Good to hear it works on your side.
