UseSOAJobSubmission - Allow service-oriented architecture (SOA) submission on HPC Server 2008 cluster

Description

The value you assign to the UseSOAJobSubmission property specifies whether to allow SOA job submissions for the scheduler object representing a Microsoft Windows HPC Server 2008 cluster. If you enable SOA submission, MATLAB worker sessions can each evaluate multiple tasks in succession. If you disable SOA submission, a separate MATLAB worker starts for each task.

Ensure that HPC Server 2008 is correctly configured to run SOA jobs on MATLAB Distributed Computing Server. For more details, see the online installation instructions at http://www.mathworks.com/distconfig.

Note   The MATLAB client from which you submit SOA jobs to the HPC Server 2008 scheduler must remain open for the duration of these jobs. Closing the MATLAB client session while SOA jobs are in the pending, queued, or running state causes the scheduler to cancel these jobs.

Characteristics

Usage	Windows HPC Server scheduler object
Read-only	Never
Data type	Logical

Values

UseSOAJobSubmission is false by default. SOA job submission works only for HPC Server 2008 clusters, and your scheduler ClusterVersion property must be set to 'HPCServer2008'. If ClusterVersion is set to any other value, and you attempt to set UseSOAJobSubmission to true, an error is generated and the property value remains false.

Remarks

If you change the value of ClusterVersion or SchedulerHostname, this resets the values of ClusterSize, JobTemplate, and UseSOAJobSubmission.

Examples

Set the scheduler to allow SOA job submissions.

s = findResource('scheduler', 'type', 'hpcserver');
s.UseSOAJobSubmission = true;
