This example uses Matlab 2018a and MATLAB-2018a.eb
Steps to install Matlab:
* Install the appropriate Java install which requires manual download. See Java documentation for install.
* Matlab needs a "File Installation Key". There are a few options available:
* Your Matlab license should have a "`File Installation Key`" in under "`Advanced Options`" in the "`Install and Activate`" tab of your "`License Center`".
This will only install the products associated with this license.
* If you need to install all of the toolboxes to support multiple licenses Mathworks can enable a "`All Product File Installation Key`".
This will install all of the client products but will not install server products like MDCS.
A second manual installation on top of the first will be required.
* If you have a server product key, like MDCS, the "`File Installation Key`" may not install client products like Matlab Compilers.
A second manual installation on top of the first will be required.
* Edit the easyconfig file (`MATLAB-2018a.eb`).
* Update the version of Java to match the version installed in step 1.
* Add the following three lines
```
# This string could be really long
key = 'XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX'
license_server = '<IP or FQDN>'
license_server_port = '<port>'
```
* Download both ISO files from Mathworks.
* Create the tar file needed for install.
```
$ mkdir R2018a
$ mount -o loop,ro R2018a_glnxa64_dvd1.iso /mnt/
$ rsync -avHlP /mnt/ R2018a/
$ umount /mnt
$ mount -o loop,ro R2018a_glnxa64_dvd2.iso /mnt/
$ rsync -avHlP /mnt/ R2018a/
$ umount /mnt
$ tar -zcvf /my/easybuild/download/path/matlab-2018a.tar.gz R2018a
```
* Install with EasyBuild
```
$ eb MATLAB-2018a.eb -r
```
