Cluster administrators
Primary cluster administrator
Required. The first cluster administrator, specified during installation. The primary
LSF administrator account owns the configuration and log files. The primary LSF
administrator has permission to perform clusterwide operations, change
configuration files, reconfigure the cluster, and control jobs submitted by all users.
Other cluster administrators
Optional. May be configured during or after installation.
Cluster administrators can perform administrative operations on all jobs and
queues in the cluster. Cluster administrators have the same cluster-wide operational
privileges as the primary LSF administrator except that they do not have permission
to change LSF configuration files.
