ansys shows this warning "The license manager is delayed in its response. The latest requests were answered after 6 seconds." and taking too much time for simulation

[Rajeshwari Jadhav]

Hi Vikas,

The simulation time depends on the size of the model. Can you let me know which application you are working on?

send the screenshot of the licensing client utility. Goto start--> Expand Ansys 20xx Rx--> Search for Ansys Licensing Settings/ Ansys Client Licensing Settings.

Also, open command prompt and ping your server.... ex. ping servername.

Hi Rajeshwari Jadhav

Actually, I am doing simulation in harmonic acoustics of ansys.

Hi Vikas,

The connection looks good, so every simulation takes time?

Do other models take too much time for simulation and is the warning shown for every simulation? 

Also for using harmonic acoustics which Ansys application you used?

[Vikas Sablaniya]

I have ANSYS R1 2023 application, yes every simulation takes time and also other models too and not shows warning on every simulation but it takes lot of time for doing even simple simulation.

Hi Vikas,

Set the following Environment Variable –

Go to START > ‘Edit the System Environment Variables’ > click Environment Variables.

 

Under the System Variables, please click NEW and create a new variable.

 

Variable Name – FLEXLM_TIMEOUT

Variable Value – 50000000

 

Save it.

 

• Config File Reset -

 

Now open a file explorer and type %appdata% in the address bar.

Locate the Ansys folder and rename it to Ansys.old.

 

Now try launching the application and run the simulation to see if it runs without any issue.

It shows a warning again. "The license manager is delayed in its response. The latest requests were answered after 90 seconds."

Hi Vikas,

Can you make entries in the host file: (You will require admin access)

·        Open the HOSTS file on the client machine and add the license server name and IP of the license server in that hosts file.

·        Path: “C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc “ as per the following format in your client machine :

Example:

IP address             Hostname of server     FQDN    

172.16.100.57                                                 //IP address of server and name. You can also add FQDN.

·        Add the below-mentioned line at the end of hosts file.

      

·        Once the entry is added save the file.

·        Launch the Ansys application.

If you face any issues, send screenshot of it.
