This section explains how to configure your network/cluster to run a DMP Analysis. It is important that you follow these steps in order to run successfully in a distributed environment.
You will need an Ansys HPC license for each processor after the first four. For example, if you want to run six processors, you will need two HPC licenses. Some products cannot use all HPC functionality, as noted in the following table.
Table 1: Products with Limited HPC Functionality
