mdce service; job
manager
The server software includes the mdce service or daemon. The mdce service
is separate from the worker and job manager processes, and it must be
running on all machines that run job manager sessions or workers that are
registered with a job manager. (The mdce service is not used with third-party
schedulers.)
You can install both toolbox and server software on the same machine, so that
one machine can run both client and server sessions.
Network Requirements
To view the network requirements for MATLAB Distributed Computing
Server software, visit the product requirements page on the MathWorks
Web site at

Fully Qualified Domain Names
MATLAB Distributed Computing Server software and Parallel Computing
Toolbox software support both short hostnames and fully qualiÞed domain
names. The default usage is short hostnames. If your network requires fully
qualiÞed hostnames, you can use the mdce_def Þle to identify the worker
nodes by their full names. See “Customizing Server Services” on page 2-13.
To set the hostname used for a MATLAB client session, see the pctconfig
reference page.
