-Modes
-=====
-
-Modes change the fundamental behavior of the Omniperf command line tool.
-Depending on which mode you choose, different command line options become
-available.
-
-.. _modes-profile:
-
-Profile mode
-------------
-
-``profile``
-   Launches the target application on the local system using
-   :doc:`ROCProfiler <rocprofiler:index>`. Depending on the profiling options
-   chosen, selected kernels, dispatches, and or hardware components used by the
-   application are profiled. It stores results locally in an output folder:
-   ``./workloads/\<name>``.
-
-   .. code-block:: shell
-
-      $ omniperf profile --help
-
-.. _modes-analyze:
-
-Analyze mode
-------------
-
-``analyze``
-   Loads profiling data from the ``--path`` (``-p``) directory into the Omniperf
-   CLI analyzer where you have immediate access to profiling results and
-   generated metrics. It generates metrics from the entirety of your profiled
-   application or a subset identified through the Omniperf CLI analysis filters.
-
-   To generate a lightweight GUI interface, you can add the `--gui` flag to your
-   analysis command.
-
-   This mode is a middle ground to the highly detailed Omniperf Grafana GUI and
-   is great if you want immediate access to a hardware component you’re already
-   familiar with.
-
-   .. code-block:: shell
-
-      $ omniperf analyze --help
-
-.. _modes-database:
-
-Database mode
--------------
-
-``database``
-   The :doc:`Grafana GUI dashboard <../install/grafana-setup>` is built on a
-   MongoDB database. ``--import`` profiling results to the DB to interact with
-   the workload in Grafana or `--remove` the workload from the DB.
-
-   Connection options need to be specified. See :ref:`grafana-gui-import` for
-   more details.
