Platform LSF Reference

The submission cluster does not need to forward the job again. The execution cluster
reports the job’s new pending status back to the submission cluster, and the job is
dispatched to the same host to restart from the beginning
Default n
LSB_MC_INITFAIL_MAIL
Syntax
LSB_MC_INITFAIL_MAIL=y
| n
Description
MultiCluster job forwarding model only. Specify y to make LSF email the job owner
when a job is suspended after reaching the retry threshold.
Default n
LSB_MC_INITFAIL_RETRY
Syntax
LSB_MC_INITFAIL_RETRY=
integer
Description
MultiCluster job forwarding model only. Defines the retry threshold and causes LSF to
suspend a job that repeatedly fails to start. For example, specify 2 retry attempts to make
LSF attempt to start a job 3 times before suspending it.
Default
5
LSB_MEMLIMIT_ENFORCE
Syntax
LSB_MEMLIMIT_ENFORCE=y
| n
Description
Specify y to enable LSF memory limit enforcement.
If enabled, LSF sends a signal to kill all processes that exceed queue-level memory limits
set by MEMLIMIT in
lsb.queues or job-level memory limits specified by bsub -M
mem_limit.
Otherwise, LSF passes memory limit enforcement to the OS. UNIX operating systems
that support
RLIMIT_RSS for setrlimit() can apply the memory limit to each
process.
The following operating systems do not support memory limit at the OS level:
◆ Windows
◆ Sun Solaris 2.x
Default
Undefined. LSF passes memory limit enforcement to the OS.

LSB_MIG2PEND
Syntax
LSB_MIG2PEND=0
| 1
Description
Applies only to migrating jobs.
If 1, requeues migrating jobs instead of restarting or rerunning them on the next
available host. Requeues the jobs in the PEND state, in order of the original submission
time, unless LSB_REQUEUE_TO_BOTTOM is also defined.
