Open ports in special route summary

Greatrebel

Hi All,

I got a summary after special routing below. It shows there are some ports open for stripe and core. But when I use verifyConnectivity to check, there are no violations. Is that a serious issue for PnR. How can I locate these open ports. Thanks in advanced

  Number of IO ports routed: 4
  Number of Block ports routed: 6
  Number of Stripe ports routed: 80  open: 2
  Number of Core ports routed: 185  open: 399
  Number of Power Bump ports routed: 0
  Number of Followpin connections: 292
  4 ports open due to poor power planning

     Hi Kari

     After I enter setDelayCalMode -engine signalStorm and run verifyACLimit, I got the aclimit report something like below for clocks

     I had a quick lookthrough the report, did not find any Irms over  the limit. Does it mean everything is fine and I can ignore the AC limit violation reported by reportClocktree.

     

    Thanks a lot
