The install.sh script provides an automated installation that executes all the steps for a complete Ansys HPC Platform Services (HPS) deployment.
The install.sh script:
Installs prerequisites
Runs the HPS Installer (Root setup + User setup)
Note: By default, the Root setup and User setup programs interactively prompt you for input. For a fully silent installation requiring no user input, responses to prompts can be read from preconfigured answer files. If you wish to use answer files, ensure that the answer files are configured with the desired values before running the HPS installation. See Configuring Answer Files for the HPS Installer to Use. If an input value is not specified in the answer file, the setup program will prompt you for that value.
To create an HPS deployment:
Ensure that the machine on which you wish to deploy Ansys HPC Platform Core Services meets the minimum hardware requirements.
