Scanning a Library

To scan an entire library or a particular design database for OpenAccess issues:

1. From the CIW menu bar, choose oaScan – Scan Library.
   The Scan/Repair Library form is displayed.
   
   
2. Specify the name of the library to scan and, optionally, the cell and view names if you want to perform the scan on a particular design database.
3. Choose a ViewType to limit the scan to only views of the specified type.
4. Select the Mode in which the design is to be scanned:
   • Scan reports issues found but does not repair them.
   • Repair automatically repairs any issues found in the database. If your data is managed, you can also use the Checkout data when managed option to check out data from the repository prior to making any repair.
5. Specify a name for the log file (the default is oaScan.log).
   You can also specify that the log file is always displayed on completion and that it lists all designs processed rather than only those that have issues.
6. Click OK to scan the specified database.
