diva extract set switches error

sdineshkumar
library: test
cell:    not
view:    layout
Rules come from library gpdk180.
Rules path is divaEXT.rul.
Inclusion limit is set to 1000.
Switches used: Extract_parasitic_caps.
Parsing drcExtractRules of "/usr/local/cadence/installs/IC616/tools.lnx86/gpdk180_v3.3/libs.oa22/gpdk180/divaEXT.rul"...
 
*WARNING* No such switch "Extract_parasitic_caps" in the rules process flow.
Check the rules switch setting for correctness!
Errors exist in the rules file "/usr/local/cadence/installs/IC616/tools.lnx86/gpdk180_v3.3/libs.oa22/gpdk180/divaEXT.rul".
Verification program terminated

    I had to guess what on earth you were doing, but I managed to reproduce the same error by trying to use Diva DRC using that file.

    That's not going to work and isn't supposed to work. I've no idea why you did that - the rule file is for Assura not Diva. Whilst there is a lot of overlap in the rule formats, they are not interchangeable. 

    So you appear to be using completely the wrong verification tool for the rule file. Nothing wrong with the rule file, it's just intended for Assura (the clue is in the file name).

    You do appear to have a slightly strange installation structure as well, because normally GPDK is not included in the IC616 installation hierarchy, and also that rule file doesn't live within the gpdk045 library itself.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
