startjobmanager - Start job manager process

Syntax

startjobmanager
startjobmanager -flags

Description

startjobmanager starts a job manager process and the associated job manager lookup process under the mdce service, which maintains them after that. The job manager handles the storage of jobs and the distribution of tasks contained in jobs to MATLAB workers that are registered with it. The mdce service must already be running on the specified computer.

startjobmanager -flags accepts the following input flags. Multiple flags can be used together on the same command.

FlagOperation
-name <job_manager_name>Specifies the name of the job manager. This identifies the job manager to MATLAB worker sessions and MATLAB clients. The default is the value of the DEFAULT_JOB_MANAGER_NAME parameter in the mdce_def file.
-remotehost <hostname>Specifies the name of the host where you want to start the job manager and the job manager lookup process. If omitted, they are started on the local host.
-cleanDeletes all checkpoint information stored on disk from previous instances of this job manager before starting. This cleans the job manager so that it initializes with no jobs or tasks.
-multicastOverrides the use of unicast to contact the job manager lookup process. It is recommended that you not use -multicast unless you are certain that multicast works on your network. This overrides the setting of JOB_MANAGER_HOST in the mdce_def file on the remote host, which would have the job manager use unicast. If this flag is omitted and JOB_MANAGER_HOST is empty, the job manager uses unicast to contact the job manager lookup process running on the same host.
-baseport <port_number>Specifies the base port that the mdce service on the remote host is using. You need to specify this only if the value of BASE_PORT in the local mdce_def file does not match the base port being used by the mdce service on the remote host.
-vVerbose mode displays the progress of the command execution.

Examples

Start the job manager MyJobManager on the local host.

startjobmanager -name MyJobManager

Start the job manager MyJobManager on the host JMHost.

startjobmanager -name MyJobManager -remotehost JMHost
