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.
