Question about buffering of multi-driver nets

Slawa

 Hello,
I have following problem. There is net CORE/n13. This net is long and should be broken with the help of buffer
I use a command ecoAddRepeater -cell BF01D8 -net CORE/n13 -loc 300 300
But SOC writes the following Net CORE/n13 is a multi-driver net, and cannot be buffered by ecoAddRepeater command. Use bufferMultiDriverNet instead.
How to insert the buffer on this net?

 Regards,

Slawa

    Have you tried the "bufferMultiDriverNet" command as the message suggested? I couldn't find the document for this command and it may work well. I knew somebody tried the command and said transition time for the multi-driver nets got improved after the command. However, I have no idea about what this command really does, and how it adds buffers for a multi-driver net. Also, don't know why there is no document about it from Cadence. Is it a temporary or trial command? no idea.  If you try it, please let us know how good is the command.
