Revision Information The information in this guide applies to all ANSYS, Inc. Products released on or after this date, until superseded by a newer version of this guide. Within the ANSYS License Management Center on the new license server machine once the ANSYS License Manager has been installed, there is a button to obtain the System Hostid Info, as shown in the photo here: Once you have that hostname, etc. Information, you can go back to the ANSYS Customer Portal and request a license server change.

Ansys Hpc License

Starting in 2021, ANSYS began issuing new licenses for their academic customers. Unfortunately, the names of the new licenses do not match the previous names, which means that once the new licenses are installed on the license server, users must reconfigure their ANSYS clients to use the new default license names. This is actually pretty simple to do.

Open the ANSYS Client Licensing Admin Utility

There are two types of academic licenses for Ansys software: teaching and research.

The teaching license can only be used for class work. It has limitations on the number of nodes and elements that can be defined in a problem/job. You can't use the teaching license for research.

The research license is only to be used for non-proprietary analysis. Licensee and its contract users must be, or be affiliated, with an academic facility. Licensee may additionally permit individuals who are students at such academic facility to access and use the program(s). Such students will be considered contract users of licensee. The program(s) may not be used for competitive analysis (such as benchmarking) or for any commercial activity, including consulting.

Multiprocessing

Using Ansys on computers with multiple CPU cores and on HPC clusters is supported. Starting with Ansys version 16 (Feb 2015) a single license will let a job run on up to 16 CPU cores. To utilize more CPU cores than that, you will need to buy Ansys HPC licenses (one HPC license for each CPU core >16 you want to use.)
