- Definition
- Licensing Guide 3.1.1: "Ansys HPC Pack Licenses can be used to run a simulation across multiple cores/GCUs and work with most Ansys applications." "Individual HPC Pack Licenses cannot be split between multiple users or between multiple analyses."
- Counting rules
- Packs combine to enable a rapidly increasing core count for one analysis (the guide's example: two HPC Packs enable a total of 36 cores). HPC Packs cannot be combined with Ansys HPC licences in one solution (except the four included cores); only one HPC Pack licence can be borrowed at a time. Elastic Licensing does not support HPC Packs. Each concurrent parametric variation after the first needs 1 HPC Pack (or 8 HPC increments).
