Installation package contents The installation package contains the following:
The v2.6.2 app uses DRAGEN v3.11.2, which is not designed to be co-installed with earlier DRAGEN versions (e.g. v3.10.18 and below, v4.3.5 and below). When launching analysis after installing another NovaSeq 6000Dx app and its dependent version of DRAGEN (that does not support multi-version installation), the software may sporadically be unable to run. For example, users may encounter an issue if the following steps occur in order:
installation of the DRAGEN TSO 500 v2.6.2 app for NovaSeq 6000Dx and its dependent DRAGEN, v3.11.2
Install the DRAGEN version using the ires:
Log into Illumina Run Manager as a user with admin credentials
Navigate to the top left menu to "DRAGEN" in the drop down
\
installation of the DRAGEN TSO 500 v2.6.0 app* for NovaSeq 6000Dx and its dependent DRAGEN, v3.10.17
analysis is initiated using DRAGEN TSO 500 v2.6.2 app
*or any other app requiring an incompatible DRAGEN version. See Installation of 2.6.2 on Standalone DRAGEN Server for DRAGEN co-installation compatibility.
See Troubleshooting section for a workaround. NovaSeq 6000Dx App Troubleshooting
