Registering Service Ports
LSF uses dedicated UDP and TCP ports for communication. All hosts in the cluster
must use the same port numbers to communicate with each other.
The service port numbers can be any numbers ranging from 1024 to 65535 that are
not already used by other services. To make sure that the port numbers you supply
are not already used by applications registered in your service database check
/etc/services or use the command ypcat services
By default, port numbers for LSF services are defined in the lsf.conf file. You can
also configure ports by modifying
/etc/services or the NIS or NIS+ database. If
you define port numbers
lsf.conf, port numbers defined in the service database
are ignored.
lsf.conf
1 Log on to any host as root.
2 Edit
lsf.conf and add the following lines:
LSF_RES_PORT=3878
LSB_MBD_PORT=3881
LSB_SBD_PORT=3882
3 Add the same entries to lsf.conf on every host.
4 Save
lsf.conf.
5 Run
lsadmin reconfig to reconfigure LIM.
6 Run
badmin mbdrestart to restart mbatchd.
7 Run lsfstartup to restart all daemons in the cluster.
/etc/services
Configure services manually
TIP: During installation, use the hostsetup --boot="y" option to set up the LSF port
numbers in the service database.
1 Use the file LSF_TOP/version/install/instlib/example.services file as a
guide for adding LSF entries to the services database.
If any other service listed in your services database has the same port number
as one of the LSF services, you must change the port number for the LSF
service. You must use the same port numbers on every LSF host.
2 Log on to any host as
root.
