Re: [Gems-users] simulation state corrupted

[Dan Gibson <degibson@xxxxxxxx>]

I was referring to the host.
We experience a similar problem when accessing AFS during simulations, 
and we have no workaround. If you can reproduce the problem, you might 
be able to diagnose it, but there is some interaction between simics and 
its file I/O that cause the SIGBUS (we think).
You might try posting this on the Simics forums as well.

Regards,
Dan
