◆ Parameters section:
❖ DISTRIBUTION_POLICY_VIOLATION_ACTION=(PERIOD
reporting_period CMD reporting_command)
Optional. Defines how License Scheduler handles distribution policy violations.
Distribution policy violations are caused by non-LSF workloads because LSF
License Scheduler explicitly follows its distribution policies.
❖ EXT_FILTER_PORT=integer
Defines the TCP listening port used by all external plugins to communicate
with License Scheduler hosts. Specify any non-privileged port number.
❖ LS_MAX_TASKMAN_SESSIONS=integer
Defines the maximum number of taskman jobs that run simultaneously. This
prevents system-wide performance issues that occur if there are a large number
of taskman jobs running in License Scheduler.
◆ ServiceDomain section
❖ LIC_FLEX_API_ENABLE=y | n
Enables the Macrovision FLEXnet APIs to replace the default behaviour of
scheduling based on lmstat data.
You must also configure License Scheduler and your vendor daemons to work
with the Macrovision FLEXnet Manager package.
◆ Feature section
❖ GROUP_DISTRIBUTION=top_level_hierarchy_name
Required if DISTRIBUTION is not defined. Defines the name of the
hierarchical group containing the distribution policy attached to this feature.
GROUP_DISTRIBUTION and DISTRIBUTION are mutually exclusive. If
they are both defined in the same feature, the License Scheduler daemon
returns an error and ignores this feature.
❖ SERVICE_DOMAINS=service_domain_name ...
Required if GROUP_DISTRIBUTION is defined. Specifies the service
domains that provide tokens for this feature.
❖ WORKLOAD_DISTRIBUTION=[service_domain_name(LSF
lsf_distribuion[/enforced_distribution] NON_LSF non_lsf_distribution)] ...
Optional. Defines the distribution given to each LSF and non-LSF workload
within the specified service domain.
◆ ProjectGroup section
New section defines the hierarchical relationships of projects. Define shared and
non-shared projects, limits, and ownership among groups of LSF License Scheduler
projects.
