-Update:  in the new version of Matlab DC, the integration with LSF is complete, so **always** point to 'lsf' as the scheduler.  Also of note is that you should point to the queue matlab, which spans all hosts.</hi>. So:
-  * In the line //sched = findResource('scheduler', 'type', 'generic'); // replace 'generic' with 'lsf'
-  * Comment out the line that contains //set = (sched, 'SubmitFcn', @lsfSimpleSubmitFcn');//
-  * And point to the queue //set(sched, 'SubmitArguments', '-q matlab');//

-Hints on running Matlab jobs using version 2008a. When we ran version 2007a, under scheduler Lava, this page was written up.  We were then using generic integration scripts connecting Matlab to scheduler. We have since upgrade to scheduler LSF.  We will still be using the generic integration for distributed jobs.  However, for parallel jobs, we will be using the lsf integration scripts provide by MathWorks.  So everything in this page still applies but with these changes:
-  * Distributed and Parallel Jobs
-=> change the location were the matlab is installed
-<code>
-set(sched, 'ClusterMatlabRoot', '/share/apps/matlab/2008a')
-</code>
-  * Parallel Jobs
-=> comment out or delete the lines referring to the generic functions
-<code>
-%2007a sched = findResource('scheduler', 'configuration', 'generic')
-%2007a set(sched, 'Configuration', 'generic')
-...
-%2007a set(sched, 'ParallelSubmitFcn', @lsfParallelSubmitFcn)
-</code>
-=> point to the LSF scheduler and add following 'bsub' type like parms
-<code>
-sched = findResource('scheduler','type','LSF')
-set(sched, 'SubmitArguments', '-R type==LINUX64')
-set(sched, 'SubmitArguments', '-q matlab')
-</code>

+WE ARE CURRENTLY NOT RUNNING 2009A ... IT APPEARS THAT THE 2009A DC VERSION OF MATLAB STILL HAS 2008A UNDER THE HOOD WITH DC v3.3, SO WE FELL BACK TO 2008A.  THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW ARE FOR WHEN WE UPGRADE IN THE FUTURE.
