The SHARCNET Ansys license is made available on a first come first serve basis.  Should an unusually large number of ANSYS jobs be submitted on a given day some jobs could fail on startup should insufficient licenses be available.  These events however have become very rare given the recent increase in anshpc licenses. If your research requires more licenses than SHARCNET can provide than a dedicated researcher license maybe purchased (and hosted) on a ANSYS license server at your local institution.  Researchers can purchase a license directly from [https://www.simutechgroup.com Simutech] where an extra 20% country wide uplift fee must be added if the cluster where the license will be used is not co-located at your institution (for example graham cluster at Waterloo).   To use a local institutional ansys license server reconfigure the  <code>~/.licenses/ansys.lic</code> file on the cluster(s) where you want to use it.
The SHARCNET Ansys license is made available on a first come first serve basis.  Should an unusually large number of Ansys jobs be submitted on a given day some jobs could fail on startup should insufficient licenses be available.  If this occurs then resubmit your job asap. If your research requires more than 512 hpc cores (the recent new max limit) than open a ticket to let us know.  Most likely you will need to purchase (and host) your own Ansys license at your local institution if its urgently needed in such case contact your local [https://www.simutechgroup.com SimuTech] office for a quote. If however over time enough researchers express the same need, acquiring a larger Ansys license on the next renewal cycle maybe possible.
