SIMULIA Tosca Fluid Licensing Configuration

This chapter explains the configuration of the licensing mechanism for SIMULIA Tosca Fluid.

The default licensing configuration that was selected during the installation can be found within the EPC file:

<install-dir>/<os>/SMA/site/EstablishedProductsConfig.ini

The file can be updated manually with a new configuration anytime after installation. The EPC file is an .ini file that contains key/value pairs of configuration data. The values conform to the following standards:

  • Single backslashes for Windows path-separators
  • No quotes surrounding paths
  • Paths with spaces are allowed
Configuration for Tosca can be set in the [EstablishedProducts] or in the [Tosca] section, while [Tosca] has higher priority and overwrites setting for general established products.

SIMULIA Tosca Fluid uses environment variables for the licensing configuration. They are set in the configuration file <install-dir>/<os>/SMATfoResources/config/tfluid.cfg to the values in the EstablishedProductsConfig.ini file above. Global or local defined environment variables have precedence over the configuration file.
