Topic:
'Volume in use by another process' error while trying to display a seismic line.

Description:
When picking a line to display in IESX, user intermittantly gets the message: Volume in use by another process This will only occur when picking lines from part of the data.


Solution:
Cause: This error indicates that a process is actually using the particular seismic volume file (VVOL) you're trying to access. This may be the case if you are running, for example, Computation Manager processes, or ASAP. However it is more likely that nothing else is active in the project. If this is the situation then you have a corrupted VVOL file. Resolution: 1) Restore the project from a backup prior to the problem. or 2) Another option would be to Use Seis%DV to get a fairly accurate estimate of the area effected by trial and error. You can then reload just this portion of the data from SEG-Y. If the seismic data loading fails with error, run IESX_Util option 57 - Correct duplicate seismic brick maps. Some minimal data loss will occur since the process will mark the corrupted seismic bricks internally. However, sebsequential data reloading should be a success.
