LSF Version 7.3 - Platform LSF Configuration Reference

Description
The number of subdirectories under the LSB_SHAREDIR/cluster_name/logdir/info
directory.
When MAX_INFO_DIRS is enabled, mbatchd creates the specified number of subdirectories
in the info directory. These subdirectories are given an integer as its name, starting with 0
for the first subdirectory. mbatchd writes the job files of all new submitted jobs into these
subdirectories using the following formula to choose the subdirectory in which to store the
job file:
subdirectory = jobID % MAX_INFO_DIRS
This formula ensures an even distribution of job files across the subdirectories.
Important:
If you are using local duplicate event logging, you must run
badmin mbdrestart after changing MAX_INFO_DIRS for the
changes to take effect.
Valid values
1-1024
Default
Not defined (no subdirectories under the info directory; mbatchd writes all jobfiles to the
info directory)
Example
MAX_INFO_DIRS=10
mbatchd creates ten subdirectories from LSB_SHAREDIR/cluster_name/logdir/info/0 to
LSB_SHAREDIR/cluster_name/logdir/info/9.
MAX_JOB_ARRAY_SIZE
Syntax
MAX_JOB_ARRAY_SIZE=integer
Description
Specifies the maximum number of jobs in a job array that can be created by a user for a single
job submission. The maximum number of jobs in a job array cannot exceed this value.
A large job array allows a user to submit a large number of jobs to the system with a single job
submission.
Valid values
Specify a positive integer between 1 and 2147483646
Default
1000
