Working with Hosts
How events are displayed and recorded in MultiCluster lease model
In the MultiCluster resource lease model, host control administrator comments are
recorded only in the
lsb.events file on the local cluster. badmin hist and
badmin hhist display only events that are recorded locally. Host control messages
are not passed between clusters in the MultiCluster lease model. For example. if you
close an exported host in both the consumer and the provider cluster, the host close
events are recorded separately in their local
lsb.events.
Adding a Host
You use the lsfinstallcommand to add a host to an LSF cluster.

Add a host of an existing type using lsfinstall
RESTRICTION: lsfinstall is not compatible with clusters installed with lsfsetup. To add a host to a
cluster originally installed with lsfsetup, you must upgrade your cluster.
1 Verify that the host type already exists in your cluster:
a Log on to any host in the cluster. You do not need to be root.
b List the contents of the LSF_TOP/7.0 directory. The default is
/usr/share/lsf/7.0. If the host type currently exists, there is a
subdirectory with the name of the host type. If it does not exist, go to Add
a host of a new type using lsfinstall on page 72.
2 Add the host information to
lsf.cluster.cluster_name:
a Log on to the LSF master host as root.
b Edit
LSF_CONFDIR/lsf.cluster.cluster_name, and specify the
following in the
Host section:
The name of the host.
The model and type, or specify ! to automatically detect the type or
model.
Specify 1 for LSF server or 0 for LSF client.
