Platform LSF Reference
591
Description
Optional. With the Macrovision FLEXnet plugin integration installed, enables on-
demand preemption of LSF jobs for important non-managed workload. This guarantees
that important non-managed jobs will not fail because of lack of licenses.
Default
LSF workload is not preemtable
PREEMPT_RESERVE
Syntax PREEMPT_RESERVE=Y
Description
Optional. Enables License Scheduler to preempt either licenses that are reserved or
already in use by other projects. The number of jobs must be greater than the number
of licenses owned.
Default
Reserved licenses are not preemtable
SERVICE_DOMAINS
Syntax
SERVICE_DOMAINS=
service_domain_name ...
◆ service_domain_name
Specify the name of the service domain.
Description
Required if GROUP_DISTRIBUTION is defined. Specifies the service domains that
provide tokens for this feature.
WORKLOAD_DISTRIBUTION
Syntax
WORKLOAD_DISTRIBUTION=
[service_domain_name(LSF lsf_distribution
[
/enforced_distribution] NON_LSF non_lsf_distribution)] ...
◆ service_domain_name
Specify a License Scheduler service domain (described in the “ServiceDomain
Section” on page 583) that distributes the licenses.
◆ lsf_distribution
Specify the share of licenses dedicated to LSF workloads. The share of licenses
dedicated to LSF workloads is a ratio of lsf_distribution:non_lsf_distribution.
◆ enforced_distribution
Optional. Specify a slash (
/) and a positive integer representing the enforced
number of licenses. License Scheduler will not reserve more than this number of
licenses for LSF workloads regardless of the specified value of lsf_distribution.
◆ non_lsf_distribution
Specify the share of licenses dedicated to non-LSF workloads. The share of licenses
dedicated to non-LSF workloads is a ratio of non_lsf_distribution:lsf_distribution.
Description
Optional. Defines the distribution given to each LSF and non-LSF workload within the
specified service domain.
