When using an MATLAB Parallel Server on demand license, you must log in as someone who is listed as a Licensed End User on the license. Administrators will not be able to authenticate with their credentials. If the administrator also needs to use the cluster then they should also be added as a Licensed End User.

For instructions on adding a Licensed End User to a license, see this article:
