How to make ADE XL start a simulation

Spirito

Recently I moved to work with IC 6.1.3 , where the monte carlo was moved to ADE XL.

I am able to start the ADE XL and set up everything , but when I try to run monte carlo (or even a single sweep)  I get error message 

ADEXL-1921 (see Attachment. Are there new environment variables I forgot ?

  • Hi Jimito13,

    A couple of things:

    1. I don't think IC613 was actually supported on SuSE 11; that said, support appears to have been added in an IC613 hotfix. IC614 is supported though - see http://www.cadence.com/rl/Resources/release_info/Supported_Platforms_Matrix.pdf
    2. However, there is some special support in the wrappers for SuSE and it uses shared libraries in <ICinstDir>/tools/lib/SuSE - which actually link to appropriate SuSE libraries. It appears that there's a link in there for libgdm.so.2 which links to /usr/lib/libgdbm.so.3 - so I think it should be sufficient to install the libgdbm.so.3 RPM
    3. Using a supported version (IC614) would be better, but even then you'll need libgdbm.so.3 installed - but I don't think that's needed for ADE XL any more (because -nograph mode now uses a VNC-based approach to swallow up the X traffic, rather than the old "Xndx" null X server). IC613 is no longer supported.

    As for the hostid issue. What you need is the hostid in your license file (rather than the MAC address directly - although it is derived from the MAC address). However, for Europractice users I believe you cannot get a full Cadence Online Support account. Instead you need to contact Europractice who can get you set up with a "COS Lite" (it used to be called "Sourcelink Lite") account. This allows you to look at solutions etc, but not log service requests as that has to go through Europractice. I don't know all the details I'm afraid, but Europractice should be able to help you out on this.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
