HD82833: CATIA CRASHES ON RUNNING CATDUA ON AN ASSEMBLY

APAR status

• Closed as Permanent restriction.

Error description

• SCENARIO:
  1.  Start CATIA V5 in visualization mode
  2. Open the assembly "*ASY1.CATProduct"
  (Ignore "File not found" errors)
  3. Click on pull-down menu "File-> Desk"
  4. Run CATDUA on the root-level CATProduct
  .
  OBSERVATION:
  CATIA crashes

Problem conclusion

• THIS PROBLEM IS PERMANENT RESTRICTION IN
  CATIA
  INCIDENT DIAGNOSIS:
  CATIA crashes on running CATDUA on an
  assembly.
  .
  RESTRICTION EXPLANATION:
  The assembly size is very big and memory
  consumption required by the CATDUA operation
  through File>Desk is very high.
  Because of this high Memory consumption, the
  actual memory required for the operation exceeds
  the memory of the system and hence system
  automatically closes CATIA.
  As the problem is related to the memory
  consumption of the system and not related to
  CATIA, there is no such possible fix for this
  problem on CATIA.
  The problem is not with CATIA but with the system
  on which CATIA is being run.
  .
  BY-PASS:
  For cleaning the complete assembly it would be
  recommended to clean the CATProducts in
  CATDUA batch separately or at least the assembly
  should be broken into small units so as to avoid
  memory violation.
  .
