Hi There,
I got this message in my model. Wondering if this has happened to anyone else and how does this affect the model and how to eliminate this?.
"the maximum number of open hydraulic models allowed (5) has been reached"
Thanks,
Dawina
Just wondering if there's any solution to this? A colleague of mine has ran into the same issue. Thanks.
If you're using the current (10.08) version of a Civil product, there is currently a limit of five DGN's (containing Hydraulic models) that can be open at once - one in the current DGN, and four references. This limit is set by the OpenFlows functionality that is used to provide Hydraulics and Hydrology functionality in the Civil products.
You may be seeing this message if you have attached references that contain Drainage and Utilities data, and the DGN you are in also contains Drainage and Utilities data. If the current DGN contains Drainage and Utilities data, then when the product starts, the references are scanned to see if they contain Drainage and Utilities data. If they do, then they are loaded, so that the software can access the data for annotating, as part of a drawing production workflow.
Hopefully this will help you understand what the software is doing, and may help you to avoid the issue.
We are currently looking at whether the Civil products can override the 5 hydraulic models limit when references are attached.
Thanks for the response, Jonathan -yeah, we're using ORD 10.08. Sounds like we'll have to reorganize our data to accommodate this limitation.
We had a user getting the 5 max. hydraulic model error. They user merged a few models to get below the max and the error went away. However, there seems to be a new issue when placing additional nodes. They can be placed, but when re-entering the file, the new elements disappear when the hydraulic model opening/compressing process starts.
Thoughts?
We are using the ORD 10.09 version and now get a message saying "The maximum number of open hydraulic models allowed (10) has been reached". Is this new to the 10.09 version?Can we change this limit in the Bentley Licensing Tool>Select Feature Level, to a higher number or to unlimited? I made the change and don't seem to see a difference.
