matlab -batch on SLURM prints errors when HOME is shared across many nodes
When launching MATLAB in batch mode on a SLURM cluster, stderr shows:
terminate called after throwing an instance of ‘matlabconnector::installationsregistry::InstallationsRegistryError’
what(): InstallationsRegistry:getMatlabConnectorVersion: More than one MATLAB Connector records were found
This appears during startup (even for a simple command like matlab -batch "disp(version); exit").
sbatch command (PROGLIST=/work/share/…/matlab2024a/bin/matlab):
srun "$PROGLIST" -batch "$CMD"
