For example, LIM is expecting 3 name-value-pairs, such as:
3 tmp2 47.5 nio 344.0 licenses 5
However, LIM only receives the following from ELIM:
3 tmp2 47.5
LIM waits 2 seconds after the last value is received and if no more information is
received, LIM restarts the ELIM.
If LSF_ELIM_BLOCKTIME is defined, the LIM waits for the specified amount
of time before restarting the ELIM instead of the 2 seconds.
Default
Undefined—if LSF_ELIM_DEBUG is undefined, load information sent from ELIM
to LIM is not logged. In addition, if LSF_ELIM_BLOCKTIME is undefined, LIM
waits indefinitely to receive load information from ELIM.
See Also
LSF_ELIM_BLOCKTIME to configure how long LIM waits before restarting the
ELIM.
LSF_ELIM_RESTARTS to limit how many times the ELIM can be restarted.
LSF_ELIM_RESTARTS
Syntax
LSF_ELIM_RESTARTS=
integer
Description
UNIX only
LSF_ELIM_BLOCKTIME or LSF_ELIM_DEBUG must be defined in conjunction
with LSF_ELIM_RESTARTS.
Defines the maximum number of times an ELIM or MELIM can be restarted.
When this parameter is defined:
◆ If LIM attempts to retrieve load information from the ELIM and there is an error
such as an incorrect value, LIM restarts the ELIM.
If the error is consistent and LIM keeps restarting the ELIM, LSF_ELIM_RESTARTS
limits how many times the ELIM can be restarted to prevent an ongoing loop.
Valid Values
Non-negative integers
Default
Undefined; the number of ELIM restarts is unlimited

LSF_ELIM_BLOCKTIME, LSF_ELIM_DEBUG
LSF_HOST_ADDR_RANGE
Syntax
LSF_HOST_ADDR_RANGE=
IP_address ...
Description
Identifies the range of IP addresses that are allowed to be LSF hosts that can be
dynamically added to or removed from the cluster.
To enable dynamically added hosts, you must define
LSF_HOST_ADDR_RANGE in lsf.cluster.cluster_name, and both
LSF_DYNAMIC_HOST_WAIT_TIME and LSF_MASTER_LIST in lsf.conf.
If a value is defined, security for dynamically adding and removing hosts is enabled, and
only hosts with IP addresses within the specified range can be added to or removed from
a cluster dynamically.
