Notes

The Windows downloads are provided as single zipped install package. For installation instructions see below.

All of the UNIX/LINUX downloads are provided as single gzipped TAR file. For installation instructions see below.

All of the 9.4 versions have passed QA testing and include updated manuals.

On most platforms downloads include both 32 and 64 bit versions of the software. Both versions use 32bit (single precision) numbers to store and plot data and have the same capabilities and features. The 32bit version is limited to a maximum of up to 4GB of memory on all platforms (3GB on windows); the 64bit version can access unlimited memory.

For advice on which LINUX version you should use, see Linux Version Notes below.

All of the Oasys Software requires a valid FLEXlm license file to run. For details on how obtain a license file see below.

Licensing

If you are updating from 9.3 or earlier release, to run the Oasys 9.4.1 Software you will require a new FLEXlm licensing file. You do not need to update the licensing file if you are updating from 9.4 to 9.4.1. This new licensing file will be backwards compatible with previous versions. However, to run 64 bit versions of 9.3.1 (and earlier) you will need to replace the file flcheck93.exe in the 9.3 installation directory with a new version of flcheck93.exe provided with (but not used by) the 9.4 installation. For further licensing details see the installation guide (Windows or UNIX). Please contact Oasys Ltd or your local distributor for your new license file once you have installed the software:

Advice on choosing Linux versions

If possible use a version that matches your operating system, but if this is not possible our experience is that:

• 32 bit versions are generally interchangeable, and the RH 7.3 (2.4 kernel) build appears to run on nearly everything.
• 64 bit versions require kernel 2.6 or later (ie RHE4 or SUSE 9 or later).

There is no functional difference between the versions of the software built on the various Linux platforms as they share identical source code so, for example, you will not lose any capabilities by choosing to run the 2.4 kernel version.

Subtle differences between libraries or patches installed on a system may mean that your experience differs from ours. The generally uncontrolled nature of Linux distributions means that we cannot predict exactly what will happen on a given system, which is why we make the different versions available. If you have problems please contact us for advice and help.
