Does it support to run Model Advisor on multiple MATLAB sessions?

I have configured to run model advisor on continuous build environment with jenkins, but it failed to run code generation advisor on multiple MATLAB sessions.

Unable to read MAT-file C:\Users\****\AppData\Roaming\MathWorks\MATLAB\R2018b\mdladvcache.mat. File might be corrupt.

What causes the error when multiple MATLAB sessions on the same PC executes code generation advisor?

Hi Minha,

Running multiple instances of MATLAB on a CI solution such as Jenkins, Bamboo, GitLab, etc. is not considered thread safe and can lead to the locking of the file "mdladvcache.mat", causing the 'File might be corrupt' error to be displayed.

Please leverage the Parallel Computing Toolbox for running checks in parallel. Please refer to the below mentioned documentation for more information on the same:
