Further information
1. Check the attachment status code using insightattachstatus to determine whether the attachment was successfully added.
2. The new attachment will not be available on the Insight server until the scenario completes.
3. Attempting to access attachments when the model is not being run through Xpress Insight will cause the model to abort with an error.
