      Ansys CFX 18 is not supported with Release 18.0 but will be supported with 18.1 and going forward. A workaround for this issue, if you are running Ansys CFX 18.0, is below. Workaround CFX has 2 submit scripts. The default submit script is called cfxccs.pl located in C:Program FilesANSYS Incv180CFXetc. You will need to use a newer subscript called cfxwinhpc.pl located in C:Program FilesANSYS Incv180CFXetc. You will need to use the same Windows HPC 2016 version on both the server and for the client utilities on the submitting machine. Set the environment variable: CFX_CCS_SUBMIT_SCRIPT to the full path to the cfxwinhpc.pl file, for example C:Program FilesANSYS Incv180CFXetccfxwinhpc.pl (no quotes needed).
