Conformal Crashes for large designs

archive

Hi

When I run conformal on a relatively large design with about some 1500 mapping points it sometimes crashes with the core dumped. What should be done in such circumstances.

Thanks
Prasad

    The most common cause is trying to synthesize the RAM's. The tool then runs out of memory at either 'read design' or 'set system mode lec'.

    The solution is to do 'add notranslate module ' before 'read design' so the guts of the RAM don't get generated.

    If your case is different then please send your log and the .lec_dump_stack file to support@cadence.com, after trying with the latest release (06.20-s200 currently).

  • Hi Chrystian,

    Thanks for your valuable inputs. My case is different from the one you mentioned. I am using the product version 6.1 only. The tool crashes when comparing and due to a single mismatching key point. I dont have access to the latest version. What can be done??

    Thanks
    Prasad.

    You should have been contacted by Customer Support. Please work with them to resolve this.

    Thanks,

  • Hi Chrystian, Do you have any customers using SMP systems for running Conformal? I'd like to understand how much memory is typical for Conformal jobs and if typical users are using HPC clusters or SMPs.Thanks
