ANSYS Capture License Server Information
Procedure to obtain data necessary to create ANSYS, Inc. license key(s):
Run the following procedure on each system that you have designated to be a license server. You will be asked several questions about you and your company. Amongst other information, the system's hostname, FLEXlm host ID, and ID type will be displayed. Please forward this information to your SimuTech sales representative so that license key(s) can be created for you. Instructions for both Windows and UNIX systems follow.
