MAPDL releasing license during testing.
As the title.
Requested here: https://github.com/ansys/pymapdl/pull/2533#issuecomment-1873799280
Working on this three issues arise:
- [ ] Usage of PAUSE over the gRPC interface: https://github.com/ansys/pymapdl/issues/2595#issuecomment-1875635439
- [ ] Usage of PAUSE on Student version: https://github.com/ansys/pymapdl/issues/2595#issuecomment-1875635896
- [ ] ~License error showing on the student version:~ https://github.com/ansys/pymapdl/issues/2595#issuecomment-1875638392
Usage of PAUSE
over the gRPC interface
Interestingly, it seems that the PAUSE
command does not work on gRPC mode.
>> mapdl.run("pause")
CRITICAL - pymapdl_global - logging - handle_exception - Uncaught exception

PAUSE is not a recognized BEGIN command, abbreviation, or macro. This
command will be ignored.
Ignore these messages by setting 'ignore_errors'=True
However, it does work in a normal context:
I believe I'm using it wrong.... Pinging @mikerife @FredAns @koubaa
Usage of PAUSE
on Student version
Additionally, it seems the command PAUSE
does not work well in MAPDL student version (or maybe I'm using it wrong).
But if you start an MAPDL instance, and then issue PAUSE
:
$ ansys -dir /tmp
...
...
RUN SETUP PROCEDURE FROM FILE= /ansys_inc/v241/ansys/apdl/start.ans
/INPUT FILE= /ansys_inc/v241/ansys/apdl/start.ans LINE= 0
BEGIN:
pause

another application in this Workbench session. All commands to this
application will be ignored until an UNPAUSE command is typed in the
Command Window of this application and successfully processed.

and then start another MAPDL instance, you get a Maximum licensed number of demo users already reached

License error showing on the student version
Also it seems that launching student version shows the Maximum licensed number of demo users already reached.

BEGIN:
@germa89 you are not using pause wrong; at least that is what I think. It is pretty strongly implied in the help that it is for mapdl interactive. You can enter other APDL commands while paused but the UI throws an warning for all (except the unpause). My guess is that this is built into the UI and not MAPDL per se....if that makes sense.
Wrapping PAUSE
on a non_interactive
context (which uses input
) does not help to avoid the error message shown above.

PAUSE is not a recognized PREP7 command, abbreviation, or macro.
