Installation of a product via TIM does not proceed

2019-12-06

Problem

The status does not change status for a long time, it remains "Downloding".
The files INST_DIRMAIL_055000.SAV and INST_WOPIXX_023400.SAV are already in the install directory(the file names are only examples!)

Notes F10: Other products, components or versions are required

Status: WOPIXX 01 RUN... and DIRMAIL 01 RUN...

Cause

Probably unstable line

Solution

Clean up and get the downloads via PC

1. Shut down TIM subsystem (Aw. 27)
2. CHANGE_ORDER - set order status to Hld
3. REMOVE_ORDER - delete all orders
4. get the SAVFs manually via Windows download → IFS /TMSTIM/input set
5. Start TIM subsystem (Aw. 26)
