I updated the ansys license server for 2022R2 version.
And, noticed that it is not working for the versions older than 2021R1.<\/p>\n

I have tested for 17.2, 18.1, 19.1, 19.2, and 2019R1: these are not working.
But, 2021R1, 2021R2, 2022R1, and 2022R2 versions are working fine.<\/p>\n

When I run a job with older versions, I got messages:<\/p>\n
