Software Licensing

Some installed software packages have specific licensing restrictions. Users might have to contact our support to clarify the conditions or request access. Below we have listed the current licensing situation for these software packages.

Many of the software modules for installed software will print out a note that you may need to contact support if you load them. You can ignore these if you already have access!

If the software you need is not yet available on the system, please contact us!

Ansys

Our ansys license is restricted to academic usage only. Please check the Ansys page for details.

Comsol

We install COMSOL and provide the licensing server. You need to purchase your own licenses if you want to use it on the system and contact us.

Gaussian

We have a campus license for Gaussian and it is in theory available to all users. Please send us an email with the 3 licensing statements found on the Gaussian page in order to satisfy the licensing restrictions.

Matlab

SCC users from the Max Planck Society have full access to Matlab and SCC users from the University of Göttingen have 5 concurrent licenses available that they need to share. New SCC users do not need to request access anymore, it is automatic. Anyone else will have to bring their own licenses.

NAMD

Please write us a statement that you agree to the NAMD license and will not use NAMD for commercial purposes and we will grant you access.

VASP

Before you can request access, you need to be added by the holder of your research group’s VASP license to the VASP licensing portal. Please contact us afterward from the same email address that was added to the VASP licensing portal. The email address will be verified by VASP before we can grant you access.
