Abaqus
We have 100 academic teaching licenses for Abaqus. Those licenses are on the license server named s-l002.engin.uiowa.edu
The research license is on the license server license.engineering.uiowa.edu. To configure your environment to access the research license, you need to set the environment variable ABAQUSLM_LICENSE_FILE. We have written a setup script that you can source in your environment if you run Abaqus on the engineering network, or you can add the environment variable definition to your own setup script.
To source the setup script (the source command is a "dot" in a Bash shell), use the command
. abaqusres_setup
To define the environment variable in your own script/shell, use the command
export ABAQUSLM_LICENSE_FILE=@license.engineering.uiowa.edu
The use of the research licenses is summarized in this table:
