I have a matlab license on a network computer that multiple people can log on. I know that only one person can run the matlab at one time. Can the same person run multiple matlab at the same time on the same machine? The reason I ask is that I have an automatic job that runs matlab and should exit it after the run. But I observe that multiple Matlabs are hanging the task manager. So I am not sure what is happening. The matlab is launched by a batch job written as: matlab -noslpash -nodesktop -r execjob;exit;

Thanks.

Jennifer

"Designated Computer. The products may only be activated and used on a single, designated computer, provided the products are operated from that computer's console by one licensed user at any given time."

If you are using batch jobs like you are, it is not clear to me that that qualifies as "operated from that computer's console".

Designated Computer licenses are not for network use: the person running MATLAB has to sit down at the console to use it. For example if you were to design the console for a medical device, you could put a Designated Computer license into it because the software would be operated right there by one person.

Thank you!

Then, what license should I use in this situation, i.e., with batch job and scheduled on a daily basis by SYSTEM.

Thanks,

Jennifer

You should probably talk to Mathworks Sales about that. Possibly Named User license. Mathworks just re-configured some of the license types and so they might have something more suitable now.
