Hi,
My cadence crashed, and I had to restart and remove the lock files.
Post the crash, a cell became corrupted, which I can no longer access. When I try to access the cell, I get the following error:
(DB-270000): dbOpenCellViewByType: Corrupted database encountered: Unable to read design data from design [my_cell_name/schematic]. The long mapWindow cannot determine the byte-swap direction. The value 0x2a2a2a2a is an unexpected value. Try oaScan to scan/repair the database, revert it to a backed up version, or recreate it.
So I ran the oaScan on that corrupted cell, but it returns an error:
ERROR: (OA-131): Corrupted database encountered: Unable to read design data from design my_cell_name/schematic. The long mapWindow cannot determine the byte-swap direction. The value 0x2a2a2a2a is an unexpected value.
NOTE: 1 error encountered that prevents the scan of this database.
No inconsistencies found in 4 databases
- found in 0 of 2 designs
- found in 0 of 2 DMDatas
Finished: oaScan
Is there any other way I can try to salvage the corrupted cell?
I am using version IC6.1.8-64b.500.6.
Thanks,
Sunwoo
