Users from the following institutions have access to their own institution licenses and should join the corresponding software group. To join a software group, login to my.nci.org.au first, search for the group by the software group name, and use the tab `Join` on its project page to submit the membership request. It may take up to 1 business day for the lead CI to respond. Once your group membership request is approved, the corresponding licence module becomes visible and ready for use. Run `module avail ansys` to list all ansys related modulefiles. Jobs need to load the license module together with the application module to run CFX.

A sample batch job for running a CFX job is as follows:
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
#!/bin/bash
#PBS -q normal
#PBS -l walltime=00:10:00
#PBS -l ncpus=96
#PBS -l mem=Gb
#PBS -l wd
#PBS -l software=ansys_<institution>
module load ansys/2021r1
module load ansys_licence/<institution>
export CFX5_OPENMPI_DIR=$OPENMPI_ROOT
cfx5solve -def "StaticMixer.def" -part $PBS_NCPUS -start-method Gadi_openmpi |
This script will work for an arbitrary number of cpus, please choose it carefully according to your problem size.
