Resource Allocation Limits
How resource allocation limits map to pre-version 7 job slot limits
Job slot limits are the only type of limit you can configure in lsb.users,
lsb.hosts, and lsb.queues. You cannot configure limits for user groups, host
groups, and projects in
lsb.users, lsb.hosts, and lsb.queues. You should not
configure any new resource allocation limits in
lsb.users, lsb.hosts, and
lsb.queues. Use lsb.resources to configure all new resource allocation limits,
including job slot limits.
Limits for the following resources have no corresponding limit in
lsb.users,
lsb.hosts, and lsb.queues:
◆ JOBS
◆ LICENSE
◆ RESOURCE
◆ SWP
◆ TMP
