LSF Version 7.3 - Administering Platform LSF

Adding Hosts Dynamically
82 Administering Platform LSF
Remove a host by editing the hostcache file
Dynamic hosts remain in the cluster unless you intentionally remove them. Only
the cluster administrator can modify the
hostcache file.
1 Shut down the cluster.
lsfshutdown
This shuts down LSF on all hosts in the cluster and prevents LIMs from trying
to write to the
hostcache file while you edit it.
2 In the file
$EGO_WORKDIR/lim/hostcache, delete the line for the dynamic host
that you want to remove.
NOTE: If EGO is disabled, EGO_WORKDIR is not defined.
3 Close the hostcache file, and then start up the cluster.
