schmod_fcfs
Enables the first-come, first-served (FCFS) scheduler features. schmod_fcfs can
appear anywhere in the SCH_PLUGIN list. By default, if
schmod_fcfs is not
configured in
lsb.modules, it is loaded automatically along with schmod_default.
Source code (
sch.mod.fcfs.c) for the schmod_fcfs scheduler plugin module is
installed in the directory
LSF_TOP/6.2/misc/examples/external_plugin/
Use the LSF scheduler plugin SDK to modify the FCFS scheduler module code to suit
the job scheduling requirements of your site.
