Product

Platform

• F50—Wildcat (2 and 4 CPUs)
• 6F1—Condor (2, 4, and 6 CPUs)

Operating system

IBM^® AIX 4.2.1 or IBM AIX 4.3.3

Machines affected

Trendsetter VLF (Very Large Format) V-speed platesetter

Symptoms

Trendsetter VLF V-speed retraces and performs slowly during the expose operation.

Cause

The TIFF cache is not active on Brisque.

The TIFF cache is a Brisque partition named ExposeSpool, which temporarily stores TIFF files that will be sent to the platesetter during expose.

Solution

Activate the TIFF cache to start automatically when Brisque is launched:

1. In Brisque, open an AIX terminal window.

2. At the AIX command line prompt, navigate to the directory /scitex/version/scripts/.

3. Type set_tiff_Cash, and press Enter.

Note: In Brisque version 4.1, the TIFF cache is activated automatically when the Brisque application is run.
