environment variable to enable LSCS

sjwprcker

Hi, 

I would like to ensure the default job mode is LSCS, but NOT ICRP. 

How can define this by environment variable?

My cds version is ICADVM20.1-64b.500.30

My spectre version is 21.1.0.664.isr16.

Thanks for your help!

    Hi Matthias,

    Thanks a lot for your reply, which works well!

    Do you know any environment variable can set the job policy (suppose I have several customized jobpolicies) in case of LSCS?

    Dear sjwprcker,

    A quick search on the On-line support site provides the following commands to set the default job policy in LSCS job control mode. Hopefully, I understood your intent sjwprcker!

    Shawn

    .cdsenv:

    maestro.lscs  defaultSimulationJobPolicy string "mySimuJobPolicy" 

    .cdsinit:

    envSetVal("maestro.lscs" "defaultSimulationJobPolicy" 'string "mySimuJobPolicy")

    where mySimuJobPolicy is the name of your job policy.

    There is also:

    maestro.lscs     defaultNetlistingJobPolicy string "myNetlistPolicy"

    or

    envSetVal("maestro.lscs" "defaultNetlistingJobPolicy" 'string "myNetlistPolicy")

    for the other half of what's needed for LSCS.
