      On the Linux cluster job submission host which is running RSM 18.X/19.0 Launcher service, copy {install_path}/ansys_inc/v1XX/RSM/Config/tools/Linux/rsm_env_profile to $HOME for that particular user, add below lines: export ANSYSLI_SERVERS=2325@new-license-server export ANSYSLMD_LICENSE_FILE=1055@new-license-server export ANS_FLEXLM_DISABLE_DEFLICPATH=1 Make sure the $HOME/rsm_env_profile has execute permission, change it to executable if not, e.g. chmod +x $HOME/rsm_env_profile If that particular user’s User Proxy process is running, find (ps -ef | grep UPHost) and kill it (kill -9 PID) on the job submission host, before submitting new jobs from client machine to the job submission host.
