How to solve it? Thanks! 

  • Hi 03123308555

    RCX has already been retired a number of years ago and has already been replaced by Quantus QRC. Quantus is available in EXT package. Assura-Quantus flow should use Assura LVS (from ASSURA package) and Quantus (from EXT package).

    You can resolve your problem as follows:
    a. Check if you have Quantus licenses.

    terminal>lmstat -a -c $LM_LICENSE_FILE | grep QRC
    OR
    terminal>lmstat -a -c $CDS_LIC_FILE | grep QRC

    b. If Quantus licenses are available, please install EXT package from http://downloads.cadence.com and add the following lines to your .cshrc file:

    setenv QRC_HOME /your-path/EXT14.1
    set qrcPath=($QRC_HOME/bin)
    set path=($qrcPath $path)

    c. If Quantus licenses are not available, please kindly contact your local Cadence support for help on purchasing the licenses.


    Best regards
    Quek
