Chose the set of commands to use according to which domain the computer
is running on,
'efd' refers to the computers in the basement and 'tde' those at the
department.
Remember that the tools will only work in the window in which the setup
has been run. For
most of the tools it is also required the the current directory stays
the same.
The environment is initialized and some variables are defined
with this command. A couple of
setup files will be copied into the current directory and some libraries
are also created to match
the environment described in the laboratories.
efd> inittde ams360
tde> source /usr/local-tde/cad1/synopsys/v2004.06/ams_setup
No Silicon Ensemble setup yet !!
The first command defines the environment so that all executables can
be located and the second
will copy some setup-files. An empty directory is recommended. At least
it should NOT be a
directory in which Cadence dfII has been run.
efd> inittde se54
efd> $AMS_DIR/build_se_dir
And from the department
tde> source ~amslibs/v3.60/ams_setup
tde> $AMS_DIR/build_se_dir
The 'dbs'-directory, in which SE stores its database, can grow
wery big and it might be a good
idea to relocate it to some temporary area by creating a soft link f.i.
> rmdir dbs
> mkdir -p /var/tmp/<uid>/dbs
# Replace <uid> with username to avoid collision
> ln -s /var/tmp/<uid>/dbs
The drawback with this method is that 'dbs' now only exists on the computer
on which it was cre-
ated and is not accessible over the net.
