I have had two separate incidents where a user has updated a diagram or created a new diagram and when they reopen them, the updates/changes they have made are missing. Details: |

I have seen this happen twice to my users and they look at me as if I'm crazy since I can't provide them with any explanation. Have you delved into this any further?? It seems as if the user is saving on some sort of cache and then it isn't being written to the database... I can't see this happening though because SA can't write to any thing local, right?? We are running terminal services - similar to that of Citrix. Would like to hear if you have problems of this type lately... I had one of my engineers loose a whole days worth of work this past Sunday.... |

I never got to the exact cause of the problem. We moved our SA backend to an updated Citrix Environment and the problem seems to have gone away. Although, I haven't had the flux of users using SA at the same time as we did when it was happening.
I'm not sure how SA caches its data, suffice to say that it can recover diagrams every now and then. I tried to create a VBScript timer (using APIs) to save the XML of the diagram a user is working on every now and then so we could restore the diagram. Of course that didn't work because I could not extract XML from a currently active diagram. In the end I left the problem open and have not had any calls with the problem for a while. My conjectures in my last post is all I have to go on unfortunately. ![]() Sorry I could be of no more help. I have found with over a year of administering System Architect (we're on 10.0.22, before Telelogic took the application over) that user confidence has dropped and many moved to Visio for their Business Process Diagram needs. ![]() |

I have also experienced the same problem, although I did get a message saying that the database was left open.
I now close and reopen the encyclopedia every now and then to make sure what I am doing has been saved.
