Parallel pool failed to start - Job test failed during validation MATLAB 2021b

Hello everyone,

when i start the parallel pool i get the following error:

Parallel pool failed to start with the following error. For more detailed information, validate the profile 'local' in the Cluster Profile Manager.

The validation fails the "Job test" and "Parallel pool test". The validation report is posted below.

Can anyone help me please?

Kind regards and thanks in advance!

Alexander

This feels like an install issue. It's odd that Stage 2 would fail, but Stage 3 & 4 pass. And then especially have Stage 5 fail (Stage 5 has similarities with Stage 3 & 4). I would suggest contacting Technical Support ([e-mail]) to troubleshoot this.

Okay, thank you!
