+## Configuring RSM client on Windows workstations
+
+Users can setup ANSYS RSM in their workstations to connect to the Merlin6 cluster.
+The different steps and settings required to make it work are that following:
+
+1. Open the RSM Configuration service in Windows for the ANSYS release you want to configure.
+2. Right-click the **HPC Resources** icon followed by **Add HPC Resource...**
+
+3. In the **HPC Resource** tab, fill up the corresponding fields as follows:
+
+* **"Name"**: Add here the preffered name for the cluster. In example: `Merlin6 cluster - merlin-l-001`
+* **"HPC Type"**: Select `SLURM`
+* **"Submit host"**: Add one of the login nodes. In example `merlin-l-001`.
+* **"Slurm Job submission arguments (optional)"**: Add any required Slurm options for running your jobs.
+ * In general, `--hint=nomultithread` should be at least present.
+* Check **"Use SSH protocol for inter and intra-node communication (Linux only)"**
+* Select **"Able to directly submit and monitor HPC jobs"**.
+* **"Apply"** changes.
+4. In the **"File Management"** tab, fill up the corresponding fields as follows:
+
+* Select **"RSM internal file transfer mechanism"** and add **`/shared-scratch`** as the **"Staging directory path on Cluster"**
+* Select **"Scratch directory local to the execution node(s)"** and add **`/scratch`** as the **HPC scratch directory**.
+* **Never check** the option "Keep job files in the staging directory when job is complete" if the previous
+option "Scratch directory local to the execution node(s)" was set.
+* **"Apply"** changes.
+5. In the **"Queues"** tab, use the left button to auto-discover partitions
+
+* If no authentication method was configured before, an authentication window will appear. Use your
+PSI account to authenticate. Notice that the **`PSICH\`** prefix **must not be added**.
+
+* From the partition list, select the ones you want to typically use.
+ * In general, standard Merlin users must use **`hourly`**, **`daily`** and **`general`** only.
+ * Other partitions are reserved for allowed users only.
+* **"Apply"** changes.
+
+6. *[Optional]* You can perform a test by submitting a test job on each partition by clicking on the **Submit** button
+for each selected partition.
+
+{{site.data.alerts.tip}}
+Repeat the process from for adding other login nodes if necessary. This will give users the alternative
+of using another login node in case of maintenance windows.
+{{site.data.alerts.end}}

+## Using RSM in ANSYS
+
+Using the RSM service in ANSYS is slightly different depending on the ANSYS software being used.
+Please follow the official ANSYS documentation for details about how to use it for that specific software.
+
+Alternativaly, please refer to some the examples showed in the following chapters (ANSYS specific software).
+
+### Using RSM in ANSYS Fluent
+
+For further information for using RSM with Fluent, please visit the **[ANSYS RSM](/merlin6/05-Software-Support/ansys-fluent.html)** section.
+
+### Using RSM in ANSYS CFX
+
+For further information for using RSM with CFX, please visit the **[ANSYS RSM](/merlin6/05-Software-Support/ansys-cfx.html)** section.
+
+### Using RSM in ANSYS MAPDL
+
+For further information for using RSM with MAPDL, please visit the **[ANSYS RSM](/merlin6/05-Software-Support/ansys-mapdl.html)** section.

+
+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](/merlin6/using-modules.html)**.
+
+The default ANSYS versions are loaded from the central PModules repository.
+However, there are some known problems that can pop up when using some specific ANSYS packages in advanced mode.
+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 Merlin6 ANSYS
+
+For loading the Merlin6 ANSYS software, one needs to run Pmodules v1.1.4 or newer, and then use a specific repository
+(called **`overlay_merlin`**) which is ***only available from the Merlin cluster***:
+
+```bash
+module load Pmodules/1.1.6
+module use overlay_merlin
+```
+
+Once `overlay_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 Merlin6 repository (and/or overwritting the central ones), the path starts with `/data/software/pmodules`
+
