To be more specific, this will require two capabilities : &#8211; one capability to verify the setup (such as the mech_struct capability), &#8211; one capability to solve the model (such as the ans_solve capability). These two capabilities can be either picked from two separate licenses, or from a single license that contains several capabilities (for example the ansys increment has both mech_struct and ans_solve capability). To use only one license, you will have to change the Workbench settings : from the Workbench project page, go to Tools \/ options \/ Mechanical and change &#8220;Release License for pending jobs&#8221; to &#8220;Always&#8221;. Moreover, if Mechanical remains open, it will keep a license, so to be sure to use only one license, Mechanical should be closed and the solve done through the Workbench project page.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-167120","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-4391","topic-tag-installation-licensing-systems","topic-tag-remote-solve","topic-tag-rsm","topic-tag-workbench-platform-sys"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_wp_page_template":["default"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["5\/4\/2023 20:20"],"_bbp_forum_id":["153867"],"_bbp_author_ip":["209.182.204.162"],"_btv_view_count":["2525"],"siebel_km_number":["2053019"],"product_version":["19"],"km_published_date":["2018-01-23T00:00:00.000Z"],"family":["Installation\/Licensing\/Systems"],"application_name":["Workbench Platform - SYS"]},"test":"articlesansys-com"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/167120","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/167120\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=167120"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
