Importing ODF to vManager does not update vplan

I exported vplan to .odf file in vManager and after editing it I imported it to vManager. The vplan was expected to be synchronized and updated. However, nothing has changed to it. Does anyone know why?

Using Vmanager Pre-Script to launch a timed script

I would like to send an update about a vmanager regression status x days after the regression has been run. In the current environment, the vmanager regression is creating a new filepath for logs automatically based on regression name/date, so I can't use a cron job to gather logs, as the log location is not known. 


I tried to use the pre session script to launch a detached shell script that would run after a delay, but when the pre_script runs, it waits until everything is completed before finishing and moving on to starting the regression.

Here is the test pre_script I am using:

#!/bin/sh

echo "pre_script start"

delay_script "FIRST" 1
nohup delay_script "SECOND" 30 & disown
delay_script "THIRD" 1

echo "pre_script end"
exit 0

Here is the test delay_script I am using:

#!/bin/sh

echo "Starting $1"

sleep $2

echo "Ending $1"

Here is the script output when run from terminal. After the "pre_script end", I get control back.

Here is the script output when run from vmanager. There is no "nohup", and the pre_session phase doesn't complete until all the delay scripts complete.


My question is, is there a better way to achieve my goal here? (The goal being to run a script from the vmanager log directory automatically x days after the regression). I think I could use the pre_script to send directory information for an auxiliary cron job to pick up, but I would prefer to not have to have extra cronjobs needed for this.

vManager crashes when analyzing multiple sessions simultaneously with a fatal error detected by the Java Runtime Environment

When analyzing multiple sessions simultaneously Verisium Manager crashed and reported below error messages:

# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
#
#  SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x00007efc52861b74, pid=14182, tid=18380

For more details please refer to the attached log file "hs_err_pid21143.log".

Two approaches were tried to solve this problem but neither has worked.
Method.1:

Setting larger heap size of Java process by "-memlimit" options.For example "vmanager -memlimit 8G".

Method.2:

Enlarging stack memory size limit of the Coverage engine by setting "IMC_NATIVE_STACKSIZE" environment variable to a larger value. For example "setenv IMC_NATIVE_STACKSIZE 1024000"

According to "hs_err_pid*.log" it is almost certain that the memory overflow triggered Java's CrashOnOutOfMemoryError and caused Verisium Manager to crash. There are some arguments about memory management of Java like "Xms, Xmx, ThreadStackSize, Xss5048k etc" and maybe this problem can be fixed by setting these arguments during analysis. However, how exactly does Verisium Manager specify these arguments during analysis? I tried to set them by the form of setting environment variables before analysis but it didn't work in analysis and their values didn't change.

Is there something wrong with my operation or is there a better solution?

Thank you very much.

Collecting Coverage using Vmanager

Hi, 

I am running a regression in order to collect the coverage. However I have an issue. I am setting a signal to 0 when reset is de-asserted  then this signal takes a fixed value when the reset is asserted. 

if(!rst_n) 
init_val= 'b0;

else 

init_val31'h34013FF7

the issue is that I got 0%  coverage for the init_value since we only have a rising edge and the signal is not toggling during the simulation. is there an option to collect coverage when there is a rising edge or a falling edge?

Using vManager to identify line coverage from a specific test

I have been using the rank feature to identify tests that are redundant in our environment, but then I realized I'd also like to be able to see exactly what coverage goes into increasing the delta_cov value for a given test. If I had a test in my rank report that contributed 0.5% of the delta_cov, how could I got about seeing exactly where that 0.5% was coming from? It seems like that might be part of the correlate function, but I couldn't mange to find a way to see what specific coverage was being contributed for a given test.

VManager wrongly imports failed test as passed

Hello,
I'm exploring VManager tool capabilities.

I launched a simulation with xrun, which terminates with a fatal error (`uvm_fatal actually).

Then I imported the flow session, through VManager -> Regression -> Collect Runs, linking the directory with ucm and ucd of just failed run.

VManager imports the test with following attributes:

Total Runs =1

#Passed =1

#Failed =0

What I'm missing here? It should be imported as failed test.

If I right click on flow name and choose Analyze All Runs, VManager brings me to Analysis tab and I can see only a PASSED tag in Runs subwindow.

Thank you for any help

How to remove sessions from vManager without deleting them

I am importing sessions which are run by other people to analyse and I would like to remove them from my vManager Regressions tab as they become obsolete. As I am not the original person who run the sims, I cannot "delete" sessions. What are my options? Thanks.
