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.
| Flag | Operation |
| -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. |
| -clean | Deletes 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. |
| -multicast | Overrides 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. |
| -v | Verbose 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
