FileBased Revision

$
0
0

We have legacy data with single digit version '0' and double digit version '00' which needs to be loaded through loaders. We are using filebased series for this with the below entries.

<value>00</value>

<value>0</value>

<value>01</value>

<value>1</value>

<value>02</value>

<value>2</value>

<value>03</value>

<value>3</value>

<value>04</value>

<value>4</value>

<value>05</value>

<value>5</value>

<value>06</value>

<value>6</value>

<value>07</value>

<value>7</value>

<value>08</value>

<value>8</value>

<value>09</value>

<value>9</value>

The load is success for the parts having versions "0" as well as for "00". But for the rest it is working only for double digit version like '01','02','03',.... and getting the error message for single digit version as "Cannot create series sort value -" because its identity is not unique. Windchill version is 10.2.

Configuring Windchill for Solidworks

$

I'm looking for information from PTC or anyone else that explains how to configure Windchill 10.2 to support SolidWorks files.  I have the workgroup manager installed on the server but the SolidWorks file types are not listed as valid MIME types and they don't seem to be listed as an option when creating new documents.  I'm trying to figure out what all needs to be configured to allow Windchill to properly handle these files.  Thanks!

Windchill 10 Stuck in subfolder

$

0

A few of our engineers keep having the same problem. Once we navigate down into a subfolder we can not naviate back to a folder above it. If you click on a folder higher in the file path - next to the home button - the screen loads then drops you right back down into the folder you were in. It's almost as if the page is caching and refusing to navigate away from the current folder.

 

Please help! The only solution we have come up with is restarting Creo, but once you move into a subfolder you are stuck there. So to work in another folder you have to restart again.

Alternatives to Windchill for Creo CAD management

Greetings,

I am looking for customer cases where either Enovia (Dassault) or Agile (Oracle) are being used as an alternative to Windchill, particularly CAD data management.

 

We are evaluating consolidation of PDMs as we own all three.  I am specifically looking for what to expect as far as pitfalls, workarounds, limitations, etc. as pertaining to the use of Creo Parametric, Schematic, View, Illustrate, etc.

 

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

How have you integrated the requirements of ISO 26262 in Windchill or your Quality System? Are you ISO 26262 certified?

new workstation slower - has significant lag

$

We are getting new workstations, Dell T-3610's, solid state drives, 16GB ram, Xeon E5-1603 Quad core and NVIDIA K5000 video cards, Windows 7, 64-bit. One thing we've noticed is a significant delay in Windchill 10.0 when selecting a command. For instance, in a collection dialog box for doing a rename in the workspace, if a user selects 7 out of 10 objects to remove them it will hang up with clicking the remove icon. It is about a 4-6 second delay, then it starts to execute the command. Our old workstations (T3500's) did not have this delay. We've timed opening assemblies and if it used to take 150 seconds it now takes about 170-190 seconds.

 

Any ideas why newer, faster hardware would be slower?

 

Thanks for any input.

PDF Generation Options

$

I have come across three (off-the-shelf) options for PDF generation from Windchill content.  Can anyone provide feedback on their experience with the two non-PTC-promoted options?

 

1) Adobe LiveCycle ES (4) - will this product be discontinued and replaced by Adobe Experience Manager?

https://www.adobe.com/products/livecycle.html

2) Fishbowl Solutions linkAccess Trigger

http://www.fishbowlsolutions.com/PTCSolutions/FishbowlPTCAutomationandIntegrationSolutions/SolutionsForPDMLink/linkAccess/index.htm

3) Etrage Plot Service for Windchill

http://www.etrage.com/etrage-plot-servicetm-for-ptc-windchill-psw/

 

All three seem to be able to push the output back into Windchill.  Can the PDF output of any of these three tools be marked up in CreoView or can only LiveCycle output be marked up?  How is Adobe's tool more reliable or better integrated?

 

Is there another tool in the marketplace that should be considered?

 

Thanks.

Positioning Assemblies vs Extended Positioning Assemblies

$

We are currently switching to positioning assemblies when publishing Catia and Creo. I understand that "extended" positioning assembies should be used for Creo, if there are assembly features.

 

Please would sombody mind to explain technically what the difference is, and roughly what is happening in the background?

What are the downsides of using "extended" positioning assemblies, over standard positioning assembies?

 

I've read a few presentations on this subject, but have yet to find anything which addresses this particular question.

 

Many thanks - Darren

Replica configuration

$

Hi,

 

We have two replica servers in one of our environment.   with one of the replica we are not finding significant difference in performence in accesing the object compared to accessing the same with MASTER as prefered file server.

 

So I want have following two concerns regarding that ..

 

1)  what are the way by which we can ensure the object is actually fecthed from indented replica server.

 

2)  and my secodn question is that,  when I see MS log of one replica , it is trying to download the part from another replica server. ( Download URL has name of the another replica server ) ..

 

I do not under stand what configuration I have missed .. please request to provide some suggestion and opinions from you end ... 

Publishing w/Remote Site & WAN Utilization (long)

$
0
0

We currently have one master site and one remote site with limited bandwidth between them.  A remote file server has been configured to reduced the load on on the WAN connection during business hours and improve CAD application performance for the remote users.  Unfortunately, publishing seems to be defeating this functionality.  Publishing is currently configured to happen on check in.  I'm curious if there is a better way to configure things.

 

Desired Functionality:

1.)  Remote user uploads data --> data is stored on remote file server only

2.)  Later, when replication is scheduled to take place (off hours)

      a.)  Data on remote file server should be copied (replicated) back to master server.

      b.)  Data on remote file server should be moved to replica vault (instead of cache vault).

3.)  Once data arrives at the master server, it should then be published.

- Of course for users at the master site, publishing should still take place immediately upon check in.

 

Actual Functionality:

1.)  Remote user uploads data --> data is stored on remote file server only

2.)  WVS publishes the data

      a.)  The file is copied file from remote file server to the publish server - ACROSS the WAN

      b.)  The publisher publishes the files and then stores them on the master server (local).

      c.)  The files used for publishing are then deleted from the publish server

3.) Later, when replication is scheduled to take place (off hours)

      a.) Data on remote file server is copied (replicated) back to master server - ACROSS the WAN AGAIN

      b.) Data on remote file server is moved to replica vault (instead of cache vault).

 

I'm not sure the impact, but WVS authentication is currently set to use the user's credentials during the publish job (auth=$user).  I'm concerned that this may cause WVS to pull from whatever file server the user has configured for their default vault, regardless of where the publisher is physically located.

 

Is there a way to have all data checked into the master server published on check in but delay publishing data checked into the remote site until after the data has replicated?
