Hi,
I have a simulation running on a cluster using the parfor command. The simulation has previously run successfully with no problems, but today it was terminated mid-way with the following error:

"The session that parfor is using has shut down"

Upon further inspection, I have traced the parfor statement within the code which the error is referring to. I'm at a complete loss to explain the cause of this error. Especially, since the code has been used successfully in previous occasions, I have no idea how to deal with this problem. What can cause the parfor command to &#8216;shut-down&#8217;? Any advice please.

Thanks
