Controlling e-manager tip
My experience with running simulation using specman and e-manager. The
environment worked okay, but I found it difficult to control it to work on a
local machine (no lsf invocation), working interactive batch (no GUI with a
ability to enter commands from the console).
Usually it is controlled by a single run vsif-file of the test, using the
run_mode variable. With the last customer it did not work. To track all what
is done there is quite complex. It calls to a run_script and this calls
another script and so for ...
The e-manager builds a directory where it puts all the results as well as a
script + TCL of how it invokes the simulation. This script can be edited and
then be fired again.
In my case when I work from home, I remove the -gui option, since GUI
requires more bandwidth.
TCL example can be seen at  (A note about the TCL file and generating waves).
