Platform LSF Reference

Default
You must specify this parameter to define a queue. The default queue automatically
created by LSF is named
default.
RCVJOBS_FROM
Syntax
RCVJOBS_FROM=
cluster_name ... | allclusters
Description
MultiCluster only. Defines a MultiCluster receive-jobs queue.
Specify cluster names, separated by a space. The administrator of each remote cluster
determines which queues in that cluster will forward jobs to the local cluster.
Use the keyword
allclusters to specify any remote cluster.
Example
RCVJOBS_FROM=cluster2 cluster4 cluster6
This queue accepts remote jobs from clusters 2, 4, and 6.
REQUEUE_EXIT_VALUES
Syntax
REQUEUE_EXIT_VALUES=
[exit_code ...] [EXCLUDE(exit_code ...)]
Description
Enables automatic job requeue and sets the LSB_EXIT_REQUEUE environment
variable. Separate multiple exit codes with spaces.
Jobs are requeued to the head of the queue. The output from the failed run is not saved,
and the user is not notified by LSF.
Define an exit code as EXCLUDE(exit_code) to enable exclusive job requeue. Exclusive
job requeue does not work for parallel jobs.
For MultiCluster jobs forwarded to a remote execution cluster, the exit values specified
in the submission cluster with the EXCLUSIVE keyword are treated as if they were non-
exclusive.
If
mbatchd is restarted, it will not remember the previous hosts from which the job
exited with an exclusive requeue exit code. In this situation, it is possible for a job to be
dispatched to hosts on which the job has previously exited with an exclusive exit code.
You should configure REQUEUE_EXIT_VALUES for interruptible backfill queues
(INTERRUPTIBLE_BACKFILL=seconds).
Example
REQUEUE_EXIT_VALUES=30 EXCLUDE(20)
means that jobs with exit code 30 are requeued, jobs with exit code 20 are requeued
exclusively, and jobs with any other exit code are not requeued.
Default
Undefined (jobs in this queue are not requeued)
RERUNNABLE
Syntax
RERUNNABLE=yes
| no
Description
If yes, enables automatic job rerun (restart).
Members of a chunk job can be rerunnable. If the execution host becomes unavailable,
rerunnable chunk job members are removed from the queue and dispatched to a
different execution host.
Default no
