jobStartup
File for user-defined options to run when job starts
Syntax
jobStartup(job)
Arguments
job The job for which this startup is being executed.
Description
jobStartup(job) runs automatically on a worker the first time that worker evaluates
a task for a particular job. You do not call this function from the client session, nor
explicitly as part of a task function.
You add MATLAB code to the jobStartup.m file to define job initialization actions on
the worker. The worker looks for jobStartup.m in the following order, executing the
one it finds first:
1
Included in the job’s AttachedFiles property.
2
In a folder included in the job’s AdditionalPaths property.
3
In the worker’s MATLAB installation at the location
matlabroot/toolbox/distcomp/user/jobStartup.m
To create a version of jobStartup.m for AttachedFiles or AdditionalPaths, copy
the provided file and modify it as required. For further details on jobStartup and its
implementation, see the text in the installed jobStartup.m file.
