Work on an Execution Environment
Connect to an Execution Environment
Prerequisites
- An Assembly with an assigned Execution Environment (Set Up an Execution Environment)
- Active Assembly Session (Reserve an Assembly)
Steps
1. Open the Connection Dialog
- Click the Connect button on the Overview, the Assembly Page, or in the My Assemblies dropdown in the NavBar.
2. Select an Execution Environment and Connect
- Select an Execution Environment in the opening dialog and click Web. In most cases, there will only be one option. A desktop connection to your Assembly opens in a new browser tab.
Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Likely cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| The connect dialog lists no Execution Environment | No Execution Environment is assigned to the Assembly | Ask an admin to assign one — see Set Up an Execution Environment |
| The Connect button is not available | No active Session on the Assembly | Reserve the Assembly and wait for the Session to become active |
| The desktop shows a black screen | The Execution Environment is still starting up | Wait a moment and refresh the browser tab |
| Login fails or the Session closes immediately | Wrong Execution Environment credentials stored in vHaaS | Ask an admin to re-enter the credentials — see Manage an Existing Execution Environment |
| The desktop opens but the Assembly hardware is missing | Device is powered off, or the Assembly Profile does not match the wiring | Power the device on via the Assembly Manager; otherwise see Assembly Profile Integration |
Connection Features
Clipboard
You can copy and paste text between your local machine and the Execution Environment in both directions.
Console Tab
The Assembly page has a Console tab that gives you direct terminal access to the Execution Environment without going through the connect dialog.
Transfer your testsuite to the Execution Environment
- You can use Gitlab or Github to clone a testsuite onto the Execution Environment. For that, set up Using Git on the Execution Environment in your user profile.
Configure the Execution Environment
To successfully send and receive messages, the channel mapping between CANoe and the VN device must be configured. This can be done within CANoe under: CANoe: Hardware -> Channel Mapping
Hint
Make sure that the VN-Interface, which is part of the Assembly is powered on. Otherwise it can`t be selected within CANoe.
