  Hello.
  As the subjects indicates, I am trying to use more than 4 cores for Ansys HFSS simulations.
  
  Below are screenshots indicating (or not indicating) my licensing information. I am using license associated with the situation associated with the University of Virginia.

  The server information should be in C:\Program Files\ANSYSEM\Shared Files\Licensing\ansyslmd.ininWhat are you seeing for errors when you try to run HFSS with more than 4 cores, please share screenshots? Does it run if you only select to use 4 cores?.Thank youn
