LSB_FRAMES
Syntax LSB_FRAMES=start_number,end_number,step
Description
Determines the number of frames to be processed by a frame job.
Valid values
The values of start_number, end_number, and step are positive integers. Use commas to
separate the values.
Default
Undefined
Notes
When the job is running, LSB_FRAMES will be set to the relative frames with the
format LSB_FRAMES=start_number,end_number,step.
From the start_number, end_number, and step, the frame job can know how many frames
it will process.
Where defined
Set by sbatchd

LSB_FRAMES=10,20,1
LSB_HOSTS
Syntax LSB_HOSTS="host_name..."
Description
A list of hosts selected by LSF Batch to run the batch job.
Notes
If a job is run on a single processor, the system sets LSB_HOSTS to the name of the
host used.
For parallel jobs, the system sets LSB_HOSTS to the names of all the hosts used.
Where defined
Set by sbatchd when the job is executed. LSB_HOSTS is set only when the list of host
names is less than 4096 bytes.
