Update Simulation Compute Manager on Windows and Linux

From Windows

  1. Stop adskscm service before uninstalling the currently installed version of SCM
  2. In the Windows Control Panel, locate Autodesk Simulation Compute Manager in the list of programs, and uninstall it by clicking Remove or Uninstall.
  3. Download simulation-compute.msi for Windows
  4. Start the installer for Simulation Compute Manager

From Linux Workstation

  1. Stop adskscm sudo systemctl stop adskscm
  2. Remove the simulation-compute-RR.NN.x86_64 package Tip: On Red Hat Enterprise Linux, you can uninstall all of these packages with a single command:
     rpm -e simulation-compute-*
  3. Download simulation-compute-x86_64.rpm for Linux workstation
  4. Enter the following command
     rpm -ivh simulation-compute-x86_64.rpm
  5. Start adskscm
     sudo systemctl start adskscm

From Linux ThinClient

  1. Stop any existing Simulation Compute Manager instances with curl localhost:43500/terminate or curl :43500/terminate.
  2. Allow sufficient time for the processes to exit cleanly.
  3. Make sure the SimulationCompute processes are terminated by calling /sbin/pidof SimulationCompute. If a process IDs are returned, kill the all processes using kill -9 ''.
  4. Make sure the fs-harness process is terminated by calling /sbin/pidof fs-harness. If a process ID is returned, kill the process using kill -9 ''
  5. Download simulation-compute-lnx.zip for Linux ThinClient
  6. Unzip /opt/Autodesk/simulation-compute/bin/ Tip: Installing an existing location, you need to copy and replace the original ComputeProvisioner.config.json from the SCM location.
  7. Start the Simulation Compute Manager using:
      $<your install location>/opt/Autodesk/simulation-compute/bin/SimulationCompute
