Snapshot and Restore

  
Snapshot/Restore is used to dump the simulation memory at a given point in time and restore (fly-out) from it at later time.
During the simulation run, use button to dump the memory into a file. 
When the simulation is stopped, you can use the button to select from the list the Snapshot file to restore.  
 
If Snapshot files are available for this database and current scenario, they will be listed in the Available Snapshot List panel. 
Press the Start button then pause the simulation.
Select one of the snapshots in the list, then double-click to restore the simulation at this point in time. 
Press restart.
  
 
CS Edition only.
  
 
Snapshot/Restore is a complex mechanism that must be considered if user-modules or external modules are linked with the simulation engine.
These user-modules must be made compliant with the Snapshot/Restore mechanism in order for the simulation to restore properly.
 
Misuse of this functionality can result in crash or memory corruption.
