Ansys regularly releases service packs to fix and enhance various issues with its major releases.  Therefore starting with Ansys 2024 a separate ansys module will appear on the clusters with a decimal and two digits appearing after the release number whenever a service pack is been installed over the initial release.  For example, the initial 2024 release without any service pack applied maybe loaded by doing <code>module load ansys/2024R1</code> while a module with Service Pack 3 applied maybe loaded by doing <code>module load ansys/2024R1.03</code> instead.  If a service pack is already available by the time a new release is to be installed, then most likely only a module for that service pack number will be installed unless otherwise a requeste to install the initial release also is received.

Most users will likely want to load the latest module version equipped with latest installed service pack which can be achieved by simply doing <code>module load ansys</code>.  While its not expected service packs will impact numerical results, the changes they make are extensive and so if computations have already been done with the initial release or an earlier service pack than some groups may prefer to continue using it. Having separate modules for each service pack makes this possible.  Starting with Ansys 2024R1 a detailed description of what each service pack does can be found by searching this [https://storage.ansys.com/staticfiles/cp/Readme/release2024R1/info_combined.pdf link] for <I>Service Pack Details</I>.  Future versions will presumably be similarly searchable by manually modifying the version number contained in the link.
