Sharcnet provides a small but free license consisting of 2cae and 21 execute tokens | Sharcnet provides a small but free license consisting of 2cae and 21 execute tokens where usage limits are imposed 10 tokens/user and 15 tokens/group. For groups that have purchased tokens, the free token usage limits are added to their reservation. The free tokens are available on a first come first serve basis and mainly intended for testing and light usage before deciding whether or not to purchase dedicated tokens. The license can be used by any Compute Canada member but only on SHARCNET hardware - purchased tokens that run on the license server fall under the same agreement. Such hardware includes gra-vdi for running abaqus in full graphical mode and graham cluster for submitting compute batch jobs to the queue. Before you can use the license you must open ticket at <support@computecanada.ca> and request access. In your email 1) mention that it is for use on Sharcnet systems and 2) include a copy/paste of the following <tt>License Agreement</tt> statement with your full name and Compute Canada username entered in the indicated locations. Please note that every user must do this ie) cannot be done one time only for a group (including PIs who have purchased their own dedicated tokens). | ||

=== Check License Server === | |||
To query the sharcnet license server do the following. It will show the reservations for purchasing groups and token usage by username for any running jobs: | |||
<source lang="bash"> | |||
ssh graham.computecanada.ca | |||
module load abaqus | |||
abaqus licensing lmstat -c $LM_LICENSE_FILE -a | |||

A) First install the TigerVNC client on your desktop as described in [[VNC]]. Once logged in, startup abaqus simply as follows: | |||
# Connect to gra-vdi.computecanada.ca with TigerVNC | # Connect to gra-vdi.computecanada.ca with TigerVNC | ||
# <code>module load | # <code>module load SnEnv</code> | ||
# <code>module load abaqus | # <code>module load abaqus</code> | ||
# <code>abaqus cae</code> | # <code>abaqus cae</code> | ||
B) If you want to use your own license server (not the SHARCNET license server) do the following: | |||
# Connect to gra-vdi.computecanada.ca with TigerVNC | |||
# module load SnEnv | |||
# module load abaqus | |||
# export ABAQUSLM_LICENSE_FILE=<i>port@yourlicenseserverhostname.ca</i> | |||
# abaqus cae | |||
where you must first request <i>port@licenseserverhostname</i> be opened in a ticket before jobs can be run in grahams queue. | |||

The Western site license may only be used | The Western site license may only be used by Western researchers with hardware located on Western's campus such as the Dusky legacy cluster. Graham and gra-vdi are excluded since they are located at Waterloo (use the Sharcnet License for these systems as described above). Contact the Western abaqus license server administrator (located in Robarts) to make arrangements before attempting to use the Western abaqus license. Submit a ticket to Compute Canada support to request the admins contact information if necessary. You will need to provide your Compute Canada username and likely make arrangements to purchase tokens. If you are granted access request the port and server values and enter them into your abaqus.lic file as shown in 1) near the top of this wiki which will in turn be used by the Compute Canada module on dusky when it loads. |
