Running Matlab
Matlab is available on SuperCloud. You do not need to load a module to run the matlab command.
Supported MATLAB® versions
To see the versions that are currently supported you can type "matlab" at the command prompt and then press the "tab" button 2 times. This will initiate tab complete, showing you the different Matlab commands available. Run ls -l /usr/local/bin/matlab to see the default.
You can also use this command to see all versions of Matlab:
The output will look something like this:

The MATLAB® executable name is to the left of the -> in the output. The
associated MATLAB® version appears to the right of the ->.
Running MATLAB® interactively from an ssh session
Please do not run your code on the login nodes. You can find
instructions on how to submit your job to run on the compute nodes on
the below. If you would like
to run MATLAB® interactively on a SuperCloud system, you should request an
interactive session on a compute node by using the
LLsub command. If you want to specify the node that you want to use, include the -p <partition> option
with the command.
Once you are on the compute node, this is how you launch the default version of MATLAB®:
To launch a version other than the default version:
where matlab<#> is one of the MATLAB® executable names. For example,
matlab2022a refers to MATLAB® 2022a.
Running MATLAB in a Batch Job
To run a Matlab script as a batch job use a job submission script like this:
Where myscript.m is the name of your Matlab script. Note that in thematlab command in matlab_job.sh we leave off the .m file extension. You can then submit this job to the scheduler using either the LLsub or sbatch command.
It is likely you will need more resources than a single core. See the Submitting Jobs page for more information on how to submit batch jobs and request resources.
MATLAB® Lite
MATLAB® Lite is MATLAB® without any toolboxes installed. This will help make the MATLAB® launch faster. A light version is available for each version of MATLAB® supported by the SuperCloud.
Installed MATLAB® Toolboxes
To see a list of the installed MATLAB® toolboxes, launch MATLAB® and use
the ver command at the MATLAB® command prompt:
