 Submit a PyMAPDL job
 ====================
 
-Using PyMAPDL in an HPC environment managed by SLURM scheduler has certain requirements:
-
-* **An Ansys installation must be accessible from all the compute nodes**.
-  This normally implies that the ``ANSYS`` installation directory is in a
-  shared drive or directory. Your HPC cluster administrator
-  should provide you with the path to the ``ANSYS`` directory.
-
-* **A compatible Python installation must be accessible from all the compute nodes**.
-  For compatible Python versions, see :ref:`ref_pymapdl_installation`.
-
-Additionally, you must perform a few key steps to ensure efficient job
-execution and resource utilization. Subsequent topics describe these steps.

-Check the Python installation
------------------------------
-
-The PyMAPDL Python package (``ansys-mapdl-core``) must be installed in a virtual
-environment that is accessible from the compute nodes.
-
-To see where your Python distribution is installed, use this code:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    user@machine:~$ which python3
-    /usr/bin/python3
-
-To print the version of Python you have available, use this code:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    user@machine:~$ python3 --version
-    Python 3.9.16
-
-You should be aware that your machine might have installed other Python versions.
-To find out if those installations are already in the ``PATH`` environment variable,
-you can press the **Tab** key to use autocomplete:
-
-.. code-block:: console

-    /usr/bin/python3.10
-
-You should use a Python version that is compatible with PyMAPDL.
-For more information, see :ref:`ref_pymapdl_installation`.
-
-The ``which`` command returns the path where the Python executable is installed.
-You can use that executable to create your own Python virtual environment in a directory
-that is accessible from all the compute nodes.
-For most HPC clusters, the ``/home/$user`` directory is generally available to all nodes.
-You can then create the virtual environment in the ``/home/user/.venv`` directory:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    user@machine:~$ python3 -m venv /home/user/.venv
-
-After activating the virtual environment, you can install PyMAPDL.
