remotemdce - Execute mdce command on one or more remote hosts by transport protocol

Syntax

remotemdce <mdce options> <flags> <protocol options>

Description

remotemdce allows you to execute the mdce service on one or more remote hosts. For a description of the mdce service, see the mdce reference page. The general form of the syntax is:

remotemdce <mdce options> <flags> <protocol options>

The following table describes the supported flags and options. They can be combined in the same command. Note that flags are each preceded by a dash (-).

Flags and OptionsOperation
<mdce options>Options and arguments of the mdce command, such as start, stop, etc. See the mdce reference page for a full list.
-matlabroot <installfoldername>The MATLAB installation folder on the remote hosts, required only if the remote installation folder differs from the one on the local machine.
-remotehost host1[,host2[,...]Specify the names of the hosts where you want to run the mdce command. Separate the host names by commas without any white spaces. This is a mandatory argument.
-remoteplatform { unix | windows } Indicate the platform of the remote hosts. This option is required only if different from the local platform.
-quietPrevent mdce from prompting the user for missing information. The command fails if all required information is not specified.
-helpPrint the help information.
-protocol type

Force the usage of a particular protocol type. Specifying a protocol type with all its required parameters also avoids interactive prompting and allows for use in scripts.

The supported protocol types are ssh and rsh.

To get more information about one particular protocol type, enter

remotemdce -protocol type -help
<protocol options>Specify particular options for the protocol type being used.

Examples

Start mdce on three remote machines of the same platform as the client:

remotemdce start -remotehost hostA,hostB,hostC

Start mdce in a clean state on two UNIX operating system machines from a Windows operating system machine, using the ssh protocol. Enter the following command on a single line:

remotemdce start -clean -matlabroot /usr/local/matlab
 -remotehost unixHost1,unixHost2 -remoteplatform UNIX
 -protocol ssh
