I am attempting to validate my PBS Professional scheduler built-in profile through MATLAB, but it is failing on the SPMD Job Test.
After reviewing the Job log file, which is located in the Job Storage Location, I found an error referencing rsh:
Starting SMPD on node1 node2 node3 ...
pbs_remsh node1 "$matlab/bin/mw_smpd" -s phrase MATLAB -port 26242
connect to address xxx.xx.xxx.xx port 544: Connection refused
connect to address xxx.xx.xxx.xx port 544: Connection refused
trying normal rsh (/usr/bin/rsh)
node1: Connection refused
Launching smpd failed for node: node 1

The error was due to the fact that the shared profile for PBS Professional uses rsh by default.
It is possible to modify the PBS Professional built-in profile to use SSH by modifying the "ADDITIONAL PBSPRO PROPERTIES" and changing the:
Remote shell command to call on UNIX when running communicating jobs
RshCommand : SSH
