Controlling Execution Environment Using Job Starters
572 Administering Platform LSF
◆ SHELL
◆ LOGNAME
Any additional environment variables that exist in the user’s login environment on
the submission host must be added to the job starter source code.
Example A user’s .login script on the submission host contains the following setting:
if ($TERM != "xterm") then
set TERM=`tset - -Q -m 'switch:?vt100' ....
else
stty -tabs
endif
The TERM environment variable must also be included in the environment on the
execution host for login to succeed. If it is missing in the job starter, the login fails,
the job starter may fail as well. If the job starter can continue with only the initial
environment settings, the job may execute correctly, but this is not likely.
