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/pmodules.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
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
module purge
|
|
module use unstable # Optional
|
|
module search ANSYS
|
|
|
|
# Load the proper ANSYS version, in example for 2022R2
|
|
module load ANSYS/2025R2
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**We strongly recommend only using ANSYS/2024R2 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.
