Error when install RSM Services for ANSYS 12.0


*Problem Description*
When installing RSM Services for ANSYS 12.0 you receive the following error:

C:Program FilesANSYS Incv120RSMbin>Ans.Deployment.Config.RSM.exe -mgr -svr
Configuring RSM...
User has Administrator privileges
Exception processing command line arguments
Unknown option: -mgr
Usage: Ans.Deployment.Config.RSM.exe [-mgr][-svr][-xmlprc]
-mgr: Installs RSM Manager service.
-svr: Installs RSM Compute Server service.
-xmlrpc: Installs RSM XmlRpc API service.
no options is non-admin install which only creates shortcut

*Explanation*
If the command to start the RSM service is copied directly from the ANSYS 12.0 Documentation this error will occur. Auto formatting in the documentation created a "-" that the windows command line is unable to read. Therefore the -mgr command line option is not read correctly by the Ans.Deployment.Conifg.RSM.exe.

*Resolution*
Delete the "-mgr -svr" options from the end of the command and manually type these at the end of the command.
