Troubleshooting

If an automation trigger does not appear to run its corresponding scripts, see the following sections in the Clarity LIMS API documentation:

Troubleshooting Automated Informatics
Troubleshooting Automation in the API

If an error occurs that does not provide direction on how to proceed, complete the following steps:

1. Confirm the version of the installed Illumina NovaSeq Integration Package by running the following command on the Clarity LIMS server command line:

rpm -qa | grep -i novaseq

2. If the error is related to the AUTOMATED - NovaSeq Run (NovaSeq 6000 v3.3) step, review the log file information. See Logging for more details.

If the automated run step starts, but does not complete:

1. Use one of the following methods to open the in progress step in Clarity LIMS:
Log in to the default user account.
In Lab View, find the step in the Recent Activities pane.
Search for the step in Clarity LIMS, using either the Library Tube, or Flowcell barcode as the search term. The steps depend on whether the search is a NovaSeq Standard or NovaSeq Xp run.
2. On the Record Details screen, the Sequencing Log multiline text field contains logging information.

If unable to reach the Record Details screen, or if the Sequencing Log field does not contain enough information to resolve the issue, review the sequencer-api.log file, described in the following sections.

3. Contact the BaseSpace Clarity LIMS support team, supplying the relevant information from the troubleshooting steps already performed.
