We recently purchased an Ansys Academic Lumerical Research (5 tasks) license.<\/div>\n
While activating a second<\/strong> computer on the license manager portal (admin account), we ran into the following error message when generating the license file: Error creating license file. Please clear the error and try again. <\/div>\n
Error code: 54b41b7ca3f249028ba09cd2b4514538<\/div>\n
We didn’t have any issues with generating the first license file on a server. <\/span><\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
The other option we tried is using the floating license configuation page on the Ansys Optics Launcher “License” tab to access the first license on the server, <\/span>following these instructions here: https:\/\/optics.ansys.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/360026079294-Lumerical-license-configuration-with-the-Ansys-Optics-Launcher<\/a> But it kept saying server unreachable. <\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
How exactly should we go about with activating the license on multiple machines? We were told that we can activate lumerical on as many computers as we want, the limit is just that there can be only 5 users concurrently. Should we generate a separate license file for each machine, or use the floating license configuation page on the Ansys Optics Launcher “License” tab? <\/div>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-360383","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-anysys-licences-1"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
