Steps to run Matlab

Once you log into Cheaha, set up your environment with the command:

module load mathworks/matlab-r2009a

You can run MatLab and access your license server with

matlab -c port@license-server -nodesktop

This will start matlab in an interactive shell. This is good just to verify things work, but running significant computations on Cheaha is best done in batch mode via the SGE scheduler

You can create a simple SGE script with:

#$ -S /bin/bash
#$ -cwd
#
#$ -N testMatLab
#$ -l h_rt=2:00:00,s_rt=1:55:00
#$ -j y
#
#$ -M tjannett@uab.edu
#$ -m eas
#
module load mathworks/matlab-r2009a
#$ -V

matlab -c port@license-server -nodesktop -r matlab-script
