Hi guys,

I´m currently working with Mechanical on my workstation with an Nvidia RTX A2000 GPU. Unfortunately this model isn`t supported with the 2022R2 Release. Is there any way that I could use it tough?

Instructions how to set it up or any other help would be great.

Thanks, Moritz

Hello Aniket,

I tried to set this variable but now I am getting a licensing error:

The ANSYS Helpguide writes that it might be possible that a GPU acceleration is not possible if RSM is installed as a service. I have RSM installed, might this be the problem for the licensing error?

How many Cores are you asking for as well as using GPU?
How many HPC Licenses do you have ( What licenses are listed from a license status?)
If you open a dos command prompt and type in the following:
set

Then hit Enter.
What is the entire output from that?

Also, under %TEMP%\.ansys You will see .out files and a log file:
ansyscl.hostname.log
Are any other errors listed in those files?
