Platform LSF Reference Version 6.2

Limit Section
Platform LSF Reference
446
If a group contains a subgroup, the limit also applies to each member in the subgroup
recursively.
User names must be valid login names. User group names can be LSF user groups or
UNIX and Windows user groups.
To specify a per-user limit, use the PER_USER keyword. Do not configure USERS and
PER_USER limits in the same Limit section.
In horizontal format, use only one USERS line per Limit section.
Use the keyword
all to configure limits that apply to all users or user groups in a
cluster.
Use the not operator (
~) to exclude users or user groups from the all specification in
the limit. This is useful if you have a large number of users but only want to exclude a
few users or groups from the limit definition.
In vertical format, multiple user names must be enclosed in parentheses.
In vertical format, use empty parentheses
() or a dash (-) to indicate all users or
groups. Fields cannot be left blank.
Default
all
(limits are enforced on all users in the cluster)
