Snapshot Troubleshooting

The path annotation directives provide substantial power in more expressive scheduling, but this comes with concomitant complexity that can be difficult to troubleshoot. Some integration with the schedule snapshot tool is provided to assist with this.

Dependencies

For !depend directives, the dependency will describe the relevant Equipment Source Path Line where the dependency was set:

Wait Constraints

For !wait directives, the snapshot viewer will explain the relevant Equipment Source Path line where the constraint was set. This can come in three forms:

  • A wait is currently in effect. Here the drill task is waiting on 5 tasks which have not yet completed due to a directive set on line 3 of the drill's source path.

  • A wait is currently in effect. Here the drill task is still constrained because it has been subject to a release delay. The tasks it was previously waiting on have been completed, but a delay has been specified (in this case 1 day) and the tasks will be constrained until 1 day after the completion.

  • No wait is being applied. The drill task was previously waiting on 5 tasks, but these have been completed. This information is provided for debugging purposes.
