MAX_ACCT_ARCHIVE_FILE
Syntax MAX_ACCT_ARCHIVE_FILE=integer
Description
Enables automatic deletion of archived LSF accounting log files and specifies the archive
limit.
Compatibility
ACCT_ARCHIVE_SIZE or ACCT_ARCHIVE_AGE should also be defined.
Example MAX_ACCT_ARCHIVE_FILE=10
LSF maintains the current lsb.acct and up to 10 archives. Every time the old
lsb.acct.9 becomes lsb.acct.10, the old lsb.acct.10 gets deleted.
See also
◆ ACCT_ARCHIVE_AGE also enables automatic archiving.
◆ ACCT_ARCHIVE_SIZE also enables automatic archiving.
◆ ACCT_ARCHIVE_TIME also enables automatic archiving.
◆ MAX_ACCT_ARCHIVE_FILE enables automatic deletion of the archives.
Default
Undefined (no deletion of lsb.acct.n files).
MAX_CONCURRENT_JOB_QUERY
Syntax
MAX_CONCURRENT_JOB_QUERY=
integer
Description
Defines how many concurrent job queries mbatchd can handle.
◆ If mbatchd is using multithreading, a dedicated query port is defined by the
parameter
LSB_QUERY_PORT in lsf.conf. When mbatchd has a dedicated
query port, the value of
MAX_CONCURRENT_JOB_QUERY sets the maximum
number of job queries for each child
mbatchd that is forked by mbatchd. This
means that the total number of job queries can be more than the number specified
by
MAX_CONCURRENT_JOB_QUERY
◆ If mbatchd is not using multithreading, the value of
MAX_CONCURRENT_JOB_QUERY sets the maximum total number of job queries.
Valid values
1-100
Default
Unlimited
See Also LSB_QUERY_PORT
MAX_INFO_DIRS
Syntax
MAX_INFO_DIRS=
num_subdirs
Description
The number of subdirectories under the
LSB_SHAREDIR/cluster_name/logdir/info directory.
When
MAX_INFO_DIRS is enabled, mbatchd creates the specified number of
subdirectories in the
info directory. These subdirectories are given an integer as its
name, starting with
0 for the first subdirectory. mbatchd writes the job files of all new
submitted jobs into these subdirectories using the following formula to choose the
subdirectory in which to store the job file:
subdirectory = jobID % MAX_INFO_DIRS
This formula ensures an even distribution of job files across the subdirectories.
