Platform LSF Reference

The badmin commands consist of a set of privileged commands and a set of non-
privileged commands. Privileged commands can only be invoked by root or LSF
administrators as defined in the configuration file (see
lsf.cluster.cluster(5) for
ClusterAdmin). Privileged commands are:
reconfig
mbdrestart
qopen
qclose
qact
qinact
hopen
hclose
hrestart
hshutdown
hstartup
diagnose
The configuration file lsf.sudoers(5) has to be set in order to use the privileged
command
hstartup by a non-root user.
All other commands are non-privileged commands and can be invoked by any LSF user.
If the privileged commands are to be executed by the LSF administrator,
badmin must
be installed
setuid root, because it needs to send the request using a privileged port.
For subcommands for which multiple hosts can be specified, do not enclose the host
names in quotation marks.
Obsolete commands
Commands bqc(8), breconfig(8) and breboot(8) are superseded by
badmin(8).
OPTIONS
