Locally the system works fine. Your spidey sense is also on spot.
A change was affected prior to all this. We suspect the same but can't prove it. I'm trying to rule out the application side first. What's weird is that it is strictly specific to Softimage only. Nothing else is affected. Until I can rule out the epic fail as caused by SI, this isn't helping. EOL is when again?

It can mount the remote drives, see everything there, save files, then reads files created within the active session. But any file not created during that session can't be read and gives an error. All scene files are good and readable. From the local machine there are no issues whatsoever. But when the default database is set to the remote drive, it starts leaving empty files behind with a namespace that's similar to other files that SI dumps such as the .dmp and .Scriptlog files. But no extension and 0 bytes. I thought maybe it has a read/write test on startup for the database but that it was never obvious that the test file was there because it might get deleted like the .dmp files do when you close Soft. If it is a read/write test something is interfering with its ability to finish the process and delete the test file.

Sounds like you should use strace or Process Monitor. There's no log that Softimage itself will write out. On Fri, Apr 22, 2016 at 2:04 PM, Ponthieux, Joseph G.

In particular what tests it runs or files it creates, updates, etc. In particular is there any part of the startup process that is failing but not preventing Soft to run. Currently Soft is able to save a scene, it can then read it back in, but if I close Soft the saved file is no longer readable the next time Soft is run. I've deleted preferences. It is doing the same regardless what version of Soft I use. -- Joey Ponthieux LaRC Information Technology Enhanced Services (LITES II) Science Systems and Applications Inc.
