Exporting Libraries

Tahakhan
Tahakhan over 1 year ago

Hi,

When I Export libraries using "dlib" it takes a lot of time for some Board files and in the end it won't even generate after waiting for like 8hours. Is there any way to speed up the process?

Using allegro 17.2

I tried 17.4 as shown below but it got stuck on 99% after 3minutes. I assume it will remain stuck.

    Hi John T,

    I'm also seeing the same issue with Allegro-X. Could you please let me know what the fix is? I tried all the above, but I'm still experiencing the same issue.

    Hi Gajendiran, there was nothing conclusive because the file could not be shared this user. I see you have opened a case with our Cadence support team. My colleague will assist you with this issue and provide you with a temporary ftp link  to transfer this data securely.

    To refine to 'John T's posting:

    Please also try saving this brd file to a simple directory on the LOCAL hard drive;

    I have seen issues due to latency issues with network file shares...
