◆ poe—for POE job submission; esub calls esub.poe
◆ ls_dyna—for LS-Dyna job submission; esub calls esub.ls_dyna
◆ fluent—for FLUENT job submission; esub calls esub.fluent
◆ afs or dce—for AFS or DCE security; esub calls esub.afs or esub.dce
◆ lammpi or mpich_gm—for LAM/MPI or MPI-GM job submission; esub calls
esub.lammpi or esub.mpich_gm
◆ Any other application-specific esub program you provide
The master
esub program (LSF_SERVERDIR/mesub) handles job submission
requirements of the applications. Application-specific
esub programs can specify their
own job submission requirements. The value of LSB_ESUB_METHOD is set in the
LSB_SUB_ADDITIONAL option in the LSB_SUB_PARM file used by
esub.
The value of LSB_ESUB_METHOD is passed to
esub, but it does not directly affect
the other
bsub parameters or behavior. The value of LSB_ESUB_METHOD must
correspond to an actual
esub file. For example, to use LSB_ESUB_METHOD=fluent,
the file
esub.fluent must exist in LSF_SERVERDIR.
The name of the
esub program must be a valid file name. It can contain only
alphanumeric characters, underscore (
_) and hyphen (-).
Example
LSB_ESUB_METHOD="dce fluent"
defines DCE as the mandatory security system,
and FLUENT as the mandatory application used on all jobs.
Limitations
LSF does not detect conflicting method specifications. For example, you can specify
either
openmp or pvm, but not both. If LSB_ESUB_METHOD="openmp" and bsub
-a pvm
is specified at job submission, the job may fail or be rejected.
If multiple
esub methods are specified, and the return value is
LSB_SUB_ABORT_VALUE,
esub exits without running the remaining esub
methods and returns LSB_SUB_ABORT_VALUE.
Default
Undefined
LSB_INTERACT_MSG_ENH
Syntax
LSB_INTERACT_MSG_ENH=y
| Y
Description
If set, enables enhanced messaging for interactive batch jobs. To disable interactive
batch job messages, set LSB_INTERACT_MSG_ENH to any value other than
y or Y;
for example,
LSB_INTERACT_MSG_ENH=N.
Default
Undefined
See also
LSB_INTERACT_MSG_INTVAL
LSB_INTERACT_MSG_INTVAL
Syntax
LSB_INTERACT_MSG_INTVAL=
time_seconds
Description
Specifies the update interval in seconds for interactive batch job messages.
LSB_INTERACT_MSG_INTVAL is ignored if LSB_INTERACT_MSG_ENH is not
set.
Job information that LSF uses to get the pending or suspension reason is updated
according to the value of PEND_REASON_UPDATE_INTERVAL in
lsb.params.
