SCENARIO: 1. Copy the provided CATSettings and paste into CATUserSettingPath folder. 2. Start CATIA V5 3. Create a new Part 4. Create a Pad 5. Kill the CNEXT process 6. Start CATIA V5 again Message is displayed as Warm-start Previous session abnormally ended. For session recovery, please click yes to end this session, then restart CATIA without any document. If you click no, the previous session backup will be lost. After clicking yes, CATIA is closed 7. Start CATIA V5 again Data is not recovered.-This is a problem . CATSettings files contains SmarTeamCAI.CATSettings, SmarTeamCIX.CATSettings, SmarTeamScripts.CATSettings files. 8. Delete these three CATSetting files and again reply the scenario from step 2 to 6 Result: Message appears as Warm-start Previous session abnormally ended, do you want to recover data ? 9. Click Yes Data is recovered and incident report is displayed Data successfully restored Please save all to activate incremental backup again.- This is correct behavior. .

Problem conclusion
THIS PROBLEM WILL BE FIXED ON CATIA VERSION V5R22 GA level. NOTE THAT THIS PROBLEM WILL ALSO BE FIXED ON V5R21 SP1. Additional Closure Information: . Technical explanation of the defect: Data recovery is not possible with specific CATSettings. SmarTeam specific initializations are invoked at the very beginning of the CATIA process when its specific settings are set, that create the CATIA session and its associated working documents very early, before Incremental backup restoration command is invoked, therefore the checks performed on documents in session by this command become wrong. . Technical explanation of the correction: The correction has been delivered so that checks at the beginning of the restoration commands have been updated to authorize some specific types of session documents implicitly created by SmarTeam initializations, and that do not interfere with restoration process. Smarteam data cannot be managed by Automatic Save because their specific environment information are not natively taken into account. A user warning is now raised and incremental backup deactivated when SmarTeam documents are loaded in session and as long as these documents remain in session. After restarting CATIA, data is restored and Incident report is displayed as ?Incident report Data successfully restored. Please save all to activate incremental backup again.? In addition to this, the V5R21GA documentation has been updated to inform user about this functional limitation. . Documentation Reference: Infrastructure > Customizing > Customizing Settings > General > Data Save > Incremental Backup . Following information is modified. "The incremental warm start mechanism is available for the CATPart, CATProduct and CATDrawing document workbenches. However, the restoring of VPM V4 or SmarTeam documents in warm start mode is not supported. Consequently, do not activate the Incremental backup option if you are working with VPM or SmarTeam documents: if you do, error messages will appear when attempting to save the documents." . By-pass : Delete settings specific to SmarTeam before launching CATIA
