General errors
The messages listed in this section may be generated by any LSF daemon.
can’t open file: error
The daemon could not open the named file for the reason given by error. This error is
usually caused by incorrect file permissions or missing files. All directories in the path
to the configuration files must have execute (
x) permission for the LSF administrator,
and the actual files must have read (
r) permission. Missing files could be caused by
incorrect path names in the
lsf.conf file, running LSF daemons on a host where the
configuration files have not been installed, or having a symbolic link pointing to a
nonexistent file or directory.
file(line): malloc failed
Memory allocation failed. Either the host does not have enough available memory or
swap space, or there is an internal error in the daemon. Check the program load and
available swap space on the host; if the swap space is full, you must add more swap space
or run fewer (or smaller) programs on that host.
auth_user: getservbyname(ident/tcp) failed: error; ident must be registered in
services
LSF_AUTH=ident is defined in the lsf.conf file, but the ident/tcp service is not
defined in the services database. Add
ident/tcp to the services database, or remove
LSF_AUTH from the
lsf.conf file and setuid root those LSF binaries that
require authentication.
auth_user: operation(<host>/<port>) failed: error
LSF_AUTH=ident is defined in the lsf.conf file, but the LSF daemon failed to
contact the
identd daemon on host. Check that identd is defined in inetd.conf
and the
identd daemon is running on host.
auth_user: Authentication data format error (rbuf=<data>) from <host>/<port>
auth_user: Authentication port mismatch (...) from <host>/<port>
LSF_AUTH=ident is defined in the lsf.conf file, but there is a protocol error
between LSF and the ident daemon on host. Make sure the ident daemon on the host is
configured correctly.
userok: Request from bad port (< port_number >), denied
LSF_AUTH is not defined, and the LSF daemon received a request that originates from
a non-privileged port. The request is not serviced.
