KB000129661 | CA GEN TOOLSET CHECKOUT SHOWS ERROR "MEMORY CORRUPTION IN MODEL, CANNOT COMPLETE REQUEST."
This message does not represent an actual model corruption, rather a memory error reported by the Toolset memory validation. In the latest Gen 8.5 & Gen 8.6 PTFs one particular scenario of memory validation failure has a fix which enables flow to model "save" logic for the user to continue work. However other memory validation scenarios may still exist which will not flow to the "save" logic. For this type of problem if it persists after installing the latest Toolset PTFs then it is suggested to re-subset differently so the memory structures fall differently (not just a matter of subset size). Once more work is done on the model & a new checkout.trn is created it maybe that the problem will not reoccur. u000aIf the problem continues then to receive further assistance from CA Gen Technical Support with suggested workarounds or a resolution please create a new Support case.
