The SHARCNET Ansys license is free for academic use by <b>any</b> Alliance researcher on <b>any</b> Alliance system.  The installed software does not have any solver or geometry limits.  It may <b>only</b> be used for the purpose of <b><i>Publishable Academic Research</i></b>.  The license was upgraded from CFD to MCS (Multiphysics Campus Solution) in May of 2020 and includes the following products: HF, EM, Electronics HPC, Mechanical and CFD as described [https://www.ansys.com/academic/educator-tools/academic-product-portfolio here]. Neither LS-DYNA or Lumerical are included. In July of 2021 an additional 1024 anshpc licenses were added to the previous 512 pool.  Before running large parallel jobs, scaling tests should be run for any given simulation.  Parallel jobs that do not achieve at least 50% CPU utilization may be flagged by the system for a follow-up by our support team.

In 2023 Rocky for linux (no workbench support) was also added. Note that since all clusters are linux based, Spaceclaim cannot be used on the Alliance systems.  Neither LS-DYNA or Lumerical are included in the SHARCNET license, but could purchased as an add-on that would work with the existing hpc licenses. In July of 2021 an additional 1024 anshpc licenses were added to the previous 512 pool.  Before running large parallel jobs, scaling tests should be run for any given simulation.  Parallel jobs that do not achieve at least 50% CPU utilization may be flagged by the system for a follow-up by our support team.
