    Hi Amit,

    Use Virtuoso Layout Suite XL (sometimes called "VXL" or "VLS-XL") - the layout is 'generated' from the schematic which maps devices, pins and connectivity to the layout.  If you have an existing layout then you would need to make it 'XL' compliant by establishing device correspondence (and also device terminal correspondence / connectivity) between the layout and the schematic.  Sounds like you either need training, or you need to read the documentation and/or look at the available resources such as videos and Rapid Adoption Kits.

    Best regards,

    Lawrence.
