When you use mcc to generate a standalone, in addition to the executable myExecR2013a, a companion run script run_myExecR2013a.sh is also produced.

• Run interactively:

  scc1$ ./run_myExecR2013a.sh /usr/local/matlab  2000 4

  This run script expects the MCR path /usr/local/matlab in addition to other command line inputs.
  If you have multiple standalones compiled for different MATLAB releases, this could be a good alternative to the method recommended in the main page, which is ideal for standalones that are all compiled for a single MATLAB release (often the system default).

• Run in batch mode

  scc1$ qsub ./run_standalone_shell

  Note the above batch script is different than run_standalone_job because of this change: run_myExec2013a.sh replaces myExecR2013a.
  

  run_standalone_shell

  #!/bin/csh
  # SGE script for MATLAB standalone (generated with mcc)
  # Usage:
  # scc1$ qsub ./run_standalone_shell            # SGE_TASK_ID = 1
  # scc1$ qsub -t 3 ./run_standalone_shell       # SGE_TASK_ID = 3
  # scc1$ qsub -t 4-6 ./run_standalone_shell     # SGE_TASK_ID = [4,5,6]
  #
  # Specify SGE batch scheduler options
  # Merge output and error files in one
  #$ -j y
  # Send email to SCC userID when job finished or aborted
  #$ -m ae
  # Request 4 cores from omp queue (example needs multicores)
  # For serial apps, prepend the line below with another #
  ##$ -pe omp 4
  
  echo "\n\n********************************************"
  echo "* This job runs on $HOSTNAME"
  echo "********************************************\n\n"
  
  set NODENAME = `echo $HOSTNAME | sed 's/.scc.bu.edu//'`
  
  # Running MATLAB standalone results in creation of a cache folder in home dir
  # This may cause runtime issues. Below is a workaround.
  echo tmpdir is $TMPDIR
  setenv MCR_CACHE_ROOT $TMPDIR
  echo "\n\n********************************************"
  echo "* Created local scratch folder /net/$NODENAME$TMPDIR"
  echo "********************************************\n\n"
  
  unsetenv DISPLAY
  
  # Output to screen go to your ?.o$JOB_ID file
  
  if ($SGE_TASK_ID == 'undefined') then
    @ n = 1000;
    #echo "SGE_TASK_ID does NOT exist: ${#SGE_TASK_ID} ; $SGE_TASK_ID"
  else
    @ n = $SGE_TASK_ID * 1000;
    #echo "SGE_TASK_ID does exist: ${#SGE_TASK_ID} ; $SGE_TASK_ID"
  endif
  
  if ($NSLOTS == 'undefined') then
    @ nprocs = 1;         # in absence of -pe . . .
  else
    @ nprocs = $NSLOTS;   # -pe omp 4 ==> NSLOTS = 4
  endif
  # this standalone example expects n (parfor i=1:n) & nprocs (cores)
  ./run_myExecR2014b.sh /usr/local/matlab $n $nprocs
