Administering Platform LSF 55
Working with Your Cluster
Reconfiguring your cluster
After changing LSF configuration files, you must tell LSF to reread the files to
update the configuration. Use the following commands to reconfigure a cluster:
◆ lsadmin reconfig
◆ badmin reconfig
◆ badmin mbdrestart
The reconfiguration commands you use depend on which files you change in LSF.
The following table is a quick reference.
