Licensing

Some customers may have both ANSYS HPC and ANSYS HPC Pack licenses, they run Fluent jobs on Linux cluster through Fluent launcher, job scheduler script or RSM, they may want to force lower core count jobs (e.g. less than 12 cores) to check out ANSYS HPC only, and higher core count jobs (e.g. 12 or more cores) to check out ANSYS HPC Packs only.
