John,
We finally resolved the problem!
When we installed our new E450 server, we tuned to system to be able to
support more users/processes than the out-of-the box configuration allows.
The following two parameters in the file "/etc/system" are what broke
Verilog-XL:
* set rlim_fd_max = 2048
* set rlim_fd_cur = 1024
If we comment them out (as shown above), XL works fine. If they are
built-in the kernel, Verilog sees a time-out when talking to the license
server.
I'm sending this problem description and solution to Cadence, Globetrotter,
and Sun.
Thank you to all of you who send valuable information to help us resolve our
problem.
