Post-Installation Steps

The table below details the suggested reading paths based on your analysis needs:
Analyze performance on a remote Linux* system
Install the remote collectors and configure SSH access on a remote Linux* system. If the remote collector installation fails to install the appropriate sampling drivers, the drivers can be installed manually.
Analyze performance on a remote Android* system
Configure the Android* device for analysis and connect via ADB. If the appropriate sampling drivers are not available, the drivers can be installed manually. Compile the Android* application for analysis. Specify the project search directories.
Analyze performance on a FreeBSD* system
