Controlling Jobs

Running Jobs with Platform LSF

Controlling Jobs

LSF controls jobs dispatched to a host to enforce scheduling policies, or in response to

user requests. The LSF system performs the following actions on a job:

◆

Suspend by sending a SIGSTOP signal

◆

Resume by sending a SIGCONT signal

◆

Terminate by sending a SIGKILL signal

On Windows, equivalent functions have been implemented to perform the same tasks.
