Run OptiStruct with licenses available
Hello,
is there a way to launch an analysis with optistruct that uses just the available licenses?
For example, let's say I have 51k licenses and I have HyperMesh opened (21k licenses used). Then I launch a fem file with the compute console with 4 cores (-nt 4 as options); this consumes 30k licenses and everything is fine.
It may happen that another user setup the launching of the analysis 2 hours later with 20 cores, so it will need all the licenses available. The analysis will fail if another user has HyperMesh opened, for example, but the analysis may run with 4 cores.
I know that there is a function called "HyperWorks Units" that let the solver run the analysis with just the license available. Can you help me on this topic?
Thank you in advance

Hi Davide,
Look up the Run Options section in our help for the various options to use to run OptiStruct: https://help.altair.com/hwsolvers/os/topics/solvers/os/run_options_os_r.htm?zoom_highlight=run+options
The closest option to what you are looking for is

.HyperWorks Units are the former name for Altair Units. I dont believe there is a OS Run option called HyperWorks Units.
