The mdce service ensures that all other processes are running
and that it is possible to communicate with them. Once the mdce service
is running, you can use the nodestatus
command
to obtain information about the mdce service and all the processes
it maintains.
The mdce
executable resides in the folder
(Windows® operating
system) or matlabroot
\toolbox\distcomp\bin
(UNIX® operating
system). Enter the following commands at a DOS or UNIX command-line
prompt, respectively.matlabroot
/toolbox/distcomp/bin
mdce install
installs the mdce service
in the Microsoft® Windows Service Control Manager. This
causes the service to automatically start when the Windows operating
system boots up. The service must be installed before it is started.
mdce uninstall
uninstalls the mdce service
from the Windows Service Control Manager. Note that if you wish
to install mdce service as a different user, you must first uninstall
the service and then reinstall as the new user.
mdce start
starts the mdce service. This
creates the required logging and checkpointing directories, and then
starts the service as specified in the mdce defaults file.
mdce stop
stops running the mdce service.
This automatically stops all job managers and workers on the computer,
but leaves their checkpoint information intact so that they will start
again when the mdce service is started again.
mdce console
starts the mdce service as
a process in the current terminal or command window rather than as
a service running in the background.
mdce restart
performs the equivalent of mdce
stop
followed by mdce start
. This command
is available only on UNIX and Macintosh operating systems.
mdce ... -mdcedef <mdce_defaults_file>
uses
the specified alternative mdce defaults file instead of the one found
in
.matlabroot
/toolbox/distcomp/bin
mdce ... -clean
performs a complete cleanup
of all service checkpoint and log files before installing or starting
the service, or after stopping or uninstalling it. This deletes all
information about any job managers or workers this service has ever
maintained.
mdce status
reports the status of the mdce
service, indicating whether it is running and with what PID. Use nodestatus
to obtain more detailed
information about the mdce service. The mdce status
command
is available only on UNIX and Macintosh operating systems.
mdce -version
prints version information
of the mdce process to standard output, then exits.
