Known Reports Anomalies in SPECTRUM 6.5
SPECTRUM Software Release Notice Page 71
Problem 8: When on a Windows NT SpectroGRAPH that is running
against a Solaris SpectroSERVER, if you try to start the Report Generator,
the executable starts and tries to appear but then blinks and fails to start.
Solution: Add the remote server’s landscape handle in the
*PreferredLandscapes handle found in the Reports file located in:
$SPECROOT/app-defaults/Reports. Scroll down to
*PreferredLandscapes and add the remote server’s landscape handle.
Problem 9: When running a Graphical Report on Windows NT, the pie
chart displays wrong colors for alarms in its pie slices.
Solution: This is a known problem with Neuron Data. Blaze Software has
assigned case # 40684 to this problem.
Problem 10: On the Solaris platform, the Graphical Report connects two
data points when the SpectroSERVER is shutdown without showing it
shutdown as a gap. You have to infer from the polling times that there
existed a period when data was not getting logged into the database.
Solution: This is a limitation of Neuron Data’s graphing implementation.
The gaps in the polling and log times are represented in the data points.
Problem 11: When scheduling a Report or a Data Export through
Windows NT using Internet Explorer 4.0.x, you cannot see previously
saved entries once you exit and then reenter the Scheduler view and thus
cannot delete or modify them.
Solution: To solve the problem in Reports, upgrade to Internet Explorer
5.0 or greater and set the schedule service requirements for Windows NT
as specified in the Report Generator User’s Guide.
In Data Export, the filtering mechanism fails to work correctly. As a
workaround, upgrade to Internet Explorer 5.0 or greater and then view,
add or modify Data Export entries in the Scheduler on the Control Panel.
This problem will be corrected in a future release of SPECTRUM.
