+
+This document describes generic information of how to load and run ANSYS software in the Merlin cluster
+
+## ANSYS software in Pmodules
+
+The ANSYS software can be loaded through **[PModules](/merlin7/using-modules.html)**.
+
+The default ANSYS versions are loaded from the central PModules repository.
+
+However, we provide local installations on Merlin7 which are needed mainly for some ANSYS packages, like Ansys RSM.
+Due to this, and also to improve the interactive experience of the user, ANSYS has been also installed in the
+Merlin high performance storage and we have made it available from Pmodules.
+
+### Loading Merlin7 ANSYS
+
+For loading the Merlin7 ANSYS software, one needs to run Pmodules v1.1.22 or newer, and then use a specific repository
+(called **`merlin`**) which is **only available from the Merlin7 cluster**:
+
+```bash
+module purge
+module load Pmodules/1.1.22
+module use merlin
+module use unstable
+module use /etc/cscs-modules/
+module load cray
+module search ANSYS
+
+# Load the proper ANSYS version, in example for 2022R2
+module load ANSYS/2022R2
+```
+Once `merlin` is invoked, it will disable central ANSYS installations with the same version, which will be replaced
+by the local ones in Merlin. Releases from the central Pmodules repository which have not a local installation will remain
+visible. For each ANSYS release, one can identify where it is installed by searching ANSYS in PModules with the `--verbose`
+option. This will show the location of the different ANSYS releases as follows:
+* For ANSYS releases installed in the central repositories, the path starts with `/opt/psi`
+* For ANSYS releases installed in the Merlin7 repository (and/or overwritting the central ones), the path starts with `/data/software/pmodules`
+
+**We strongly recommend only using ANSYS/2022R2 or superior**.
+

+### ANSYS RSM
+
+**ANSYS Remote Solve Manager (RSM)** is used by ANSYS Workbench to submit computational jobs to HPC clusters directly from Workbench on your desktop.
+Therefore, PSI workstations with direct access to Merlin can submit jobs by using RSM.
