### Loading Merlin7 ANSYS ### 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 ```bash
module purge module purge
module load Pmodules/1.1.22 module use unstable # Optional
module use merlin
module use unstable
module use /etc/cscs-modules/
module load cray
module search ANSYS module search ANSYS
# Load the proper ANSYS version, in example for 2022R2 # Load the proper ANSYS version, in example for 2022R2
module load ANSYS/2022R2 module load ANSYS/2025R2
``` ```
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**. **We strongly recommend only using ANSYS/2024R2 or superior**.
