amester's Issues

Connecting to FSP based based systems with Certificates.

Can not connect to P8 or P9 based FSP systems.
unclear on how to create the 3 files needed to connect.
Certificate file fsp.crt
Private key file fsp.key
Password file fsp.pkp

No axis info in graph window?

Did I miss installing some package to get the graphing function to work properly? The graphing function not very useful without the axis information.
Running on an x86 Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS with kernel 4.2.0-41-generic

make downloads+builds source via http

By pulling source off the internet over http and then executing contents thereof, this opens developers and build servers to MiTM compromises.

(also, to package for linux distributions, you generally aren't allowed to pull source from the internet at build time)

Can't build on amester on Power8 running Ubuntu 15 (pcc64le)

Only able to read sensors from 1 processor of a total of 2

My system is a P8 S822LC model 8355-GTA server.
So, it has 10 cores per chip and 2 chips.

In my experiments, it seems that AMESTER reads only from 1 chip: when running in the first 10 cores a benchmark, power readings seem as they were idle readings.
Executions of the benchmark in the last 10 cores seem normal in terms of power consumption.
I'm reading the following power sensors:

• PWR250P0
• PWR250VCS0
• PWR250VDD0

I've used a another machine, which had 2 power sensors for processor (e.g. PWR250VCS0 and PWR250VCS1).

Attached is the beginning of the execution of AMESTER in case it's needed: amester_init.txt

Error when Source Cvs kbskit0.4

The error info is as following. I can access kbskit.cvs.sourceforge.net through browser. Is there some error on this command(/usr/bin/cvs -d :pserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot/kbskit -z3 co -P -d kbskit0.4 -r kbskit_0_4 kbskit) or what other method I can get this file(kbsmk8.6-bi)?

Thanks a lot.

Why does amester need to rebuild tcl and tk?

Why does amester need to download and rebuild tcl8.6 and tk8.6 ? Shouldn't this be a dependency?
