Limitations and Unexpected Results
Using Graphics in pmode
Displaying a GUI
The labs that run the tasks of a parallel job are MATLAB sessions
without displays. As a result, these labs cannot display graphical
tools and so you cannot do things like plotting from
within pmode. The general approach to accomplish something graphical
is to transfer the data into the workspace of the MATLAB client
using
pmode lab2client var lab
Then use the graphical tool on the MATLAB client.
Using Simulink Software
Because the labs running a pmode job do not have displays, you
cannot use Simulink® software to edit diagrams or to perform interactive
simulation from within pmode. If you type simulink at
the pmode prompt, the Simulink Library Browser opens in the background
on the labs and is not visible.
You can use the sim command
to perform noninteractive simulations in parallel. If you edit your
model in the MATLAB client outside of pmode, you must save the
model before accessing it in the labs via pmode; also, if the labs
had accessed the model previously, they must close and open the model
again to see the latest saved changes.
