I am currently running ANSYS License Manager, but as far as I can tell, I don&#8217;t have the option to restrict usage on that license manager. I could swap to Ansys Enterpirse License Manager, which I think is FlexLM based, which would give me options to limit license usage to specific users or groups, is that right? Am I barking up the wrong tree? Is there a was to make Ansys License Manager do what I want?&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This license server is attached to a large HPC cluster, and serves a lot of academic users.&lt;\/p&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-428908","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-ansys-license-manager","topic-tag-flexlm","topic-tag-license-manager-1"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_forum_id":["27796"],"_bbp_topic_id":["428908"],"_bbp_subscription":["265806","16547"],"_bbp_author_ip":["146.6.176.56"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["434087"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["434087"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2025-06-13 17:36:47"],"_bbp_reply_count":["3"],"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":["0"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_engagement":["265806","16547"],"_btv_view_count":["252"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"]},"test":"dcoopertacc-utexas-edu"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/428908","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/428908\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=428908"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
