General
Matlab is installed only on viz001, viz002, and viz003 (since we only have node-locked licenses). Several recent versions are installed in /opt/matlab. The full path to the latest version will look like:
/opt/matlab/R2015b/bin/matlab
The licenses expire periodically, but can be renewed. If you need an older version and find that the license has expired, please email Benjamin.A.Matthews@Colorado.edu
OpenGL
Recent versions of matlab, starting with R2014b, automatically enable hardware-accelerated OpenGL rendering when available. If matlab has trouble finding the display driver, it will switch to a software-based OpenGL implementation, which is inferior.
To use hardware-accelerated OpenGL on the viz nodes, you must have executed
vglconnect -s viz003 vglrun matlab -nosoftwareopengl
