LSF Version 7.3 - Platform LSF Configuration Reference

With external host and user groups enabled
Scope
Applicability
Details
Operating system
UNIX
Windows
A mix of UNIX and Windows hosts
Dependencies
UNIX and Windows user accounts must be valid on all hosts in the cluster and must
have the correct permissions to successfully run jobs.
You must reconfigure the cluster using badmin reconfig each time you want to
run the egroup executable to retrieve host or user group members.
Limitations
The egroup executable works with static hosts only; you cannot use an egroup
executable to add a dynamically added host to a host group.
Not used with
Host groups when you have configured EGO-enabled service-level agreement
(SLA) scheduling, because EGO resource groups replace LSF host groups.
Feature: External host and user groups
