LSF command messages
LSF daemon (LIM) not responding ... still trying
During LIM restart, LSF commands will fail and display this error message. User
programs linked to the LIM API will also fail for the same reason. This message is
displayed when LIM running on the master host list or server host list is restarted
after configuration changes, such as adding new resources, binary upgrade, and so
on.
Use LSF_LIM_API_NTRIES in
lsf.conf or as an environment variable to define
how many times LSF commands will retry to communicate with the LIM API while
LIM is not available. LSF_LIM_API_NTRIES is ignored by LSF and EGO daemons
and all EGO commands.
When LSB_API_VERBOSE=Y in
lsf.conf, LSF batch commands will display the
not responding retry error message to
stderr when LIM is not available.
When LSB_API_VERBOSE=N in
lsf.conf, LSF batch commands will not display
the retry error meesage when LIM is not available.
Batch command client messages
LSF displays error messages when a batch command cannot communicate with
mbatchd. The following table provides a list of possible error reasons and the
associated error message output.
EGO command messages
You cannot run the egosh command because the administrator has chosen
not to enable EGO in lsf.conf: LSF_ENABLE_EGO=N.
If EGO is disabled, the egosh command cannot find ego.conf or cannot contact
vemkd (not started).
