### 6.1.2. Set the Location of ANSYS 18.2 Applications

Complete this step before starting EKM for the first time. This step includes instructions for the primary cluster node, and for all cluster nodes.

EKM comes with a set of predefined application definitions in the directory: `EKM_HOME/conf/applications`. These include definitions for ANSYS 18.2 applications. The definitions for ANSYS 18.2 applications refer to the environment variable `AWP_ROOT182`, which provides the location where ANSYS 18.2 applications are installed.

1. On the primary cluster node, set the `AWP_ROOT182` environment variable (shown in bold) in `EKM_ROOT182/bin/ekm_env.(cmd|sh)` to the base directory where ANSYS 18.2 applications are installed. This environment variable is commented out; remove the comment and set it to the correct location.

   Linux:

       # Path to ANSYS Installation
       export AWP_ROOT182=/server/ansys_inc/v182

   Windows:

       rem Path to ANSYS Installation
       set AWP_ROOT182=\\server\ansys_inc\v182

2. (Windows only) On each cluster node, uncomment and set the `AWP_ROOT182` environment variable (shown in bold) in `JBOSS_HOME/domain/configuration/wrapper.conf`. Uncomment the line by removing the leading # and set the value to the location of the ANSYS v182 installation:

       AWP_ROOT182=//server/ansys_inc/v182
