It is solved!!!  I forgot to load the new dbd file into the IOC.

Thank you for thinking...... There is still something to do for the

clients, like probe....

Hi all,
I am using base R3.14.11

After adding some new alarm status to the files

base/src/sbStatic/alarm.h , alarmString.h and

base/db/menuAlarmStat.dbd I did "make clean" to everything and

rebuild the whole base. After that base/dbd contained the new menu and

base/include contained all new header files.

I did move lastEpicsAlarmCond and ALARM_NSTATUS to the new last alarms.

Then I cleaned and compiled the ioc application with my base in

configure/RELEASE.

So everything looks ok, but when my record sets such new alarm and a

client, which wants the string tries to read it, I get an error on my

IOC:

Illegal choice PV: 22PC503_pid.STAT error detected in routine:

dbFastLinkConv(cvt_menu_st)

Printing the reasons for this message shows:

pdbFldDes=0xd9fc5bc pdbMenu=0xd920978 nchoice=22

papChoiceValue=0xfb0cc9c pchoice=0xfb0cca4

...shows that the number of choices of the status menu is still 22.

But it should be 25 now, because I added 3 new status.

Is there still something hard coded or did I miss something?
