  upgraded Ansys license manager to 2022r2 and now unable to get Ansys software to see license, old version of Ansys has no problems pulling a license. Ports have not changed, is it possible Ansys license being used isn't compatible with 2022r2?

  Check your license file for TECS Date
  Example:
  Looking at the increment lines in your license file:
  INCREMENT preppost ansyslmd 9999.9999 31-jul-2023 10
  9999.9999 would be the TECS Date (Only programs created on or before this date will be able to use this increment)
  31-July-2023 - Expiration Date
  10 TASKS
  
  OR:
  INCREMENT agppi ansyslmd 2020.1014 permanent 6
  2020.1014 - Only programs created on or before October 14, 2020 will be able to use this Increment
  Permanent - no expiration
  6 TASKS
  
  More than likely: 2022 uses the ansyslmd.exe communication.
  Older versions use the ANSYS Interconnect.
  Please check the firewalls to ensure access to the licensing port 1056 as well as 1055 and 2325.
  You can set ansyslmd to a static port 1056 by adding it in the license file on the VENDOR line.
  
  (c:\Program files\Ansys Inc\shared files\licensing\license_files\ansyslmd.lic)
  (/ansys_inc/shared_files/licensing/license_files/ansyslmd.lic)
  
  For example:
  VENDOR ansyslmd PORT=1056
  
  After doing so, restart the license manager.
  Now try to run.
  If it does not, check the %TEMP%\.ansys directory for licdebug file erors for the program trying to be run.
  $HOME/.ansys for linux
