Best "local" scheduler for more than 8 workers?

Hi, I was recently using the local scheduler to run a parfor loop. All On our old system, all I did was run: matlabpool 8
We upgraded to a 32 core system largely for the purpose of using this same software, but now I get:
>> matlabpool 32 Starting matlabpool using the 'local' configuration ... stopped.
??? Error using ==> matlabpool at 133 Failed to start matlabpool. This is caused by: You requested a minimum of 32 workers but only 8 workers are allowed with the local scheduler.
What is the best, or simplest, way to set up a "local" scheduler on one machine to handle more than 8 workers?

If you have a license for MATLAB Distributed Computing Server, you can set it up the job manager on the local machine.
Once this is set up, you can access it via the "jobmanager" configuration, and you will not be limited to 8 workers, as you are with the local scheduler.
