MBD_SLEEP_TIME
Syntax
MBD_SLEEP_TIME=seconds
Description
Used in conjunction with the parameters SLOT_RESERVE, MAX_SBD_FAIL, and
JOB_ACCEPT_INTERVAL.
Amount of time in seconds used for calculating parameter values.
Default
If not defined, 60 seconds. MBD_SLEEP_TIME is set at installation to 20 seconds.
MBD_USE_EGO_MXJ
Syntax
MBD_USE_EGO_MXJ=Y | N
Description
By default, when EGO-enabled SLA scheduling is configured, EGO allocates an entire host to
LSF, which uses its own MXJ definition to determine how many slots are available on the host.
LSF gets its host allocation from EGO, and runs as many jobs as the LSF configured MXJ for
that host dictates.
MBD_USE_EGO_MXJ forces LSF to use the job slot maximum configured in the EGO
consumer. This allows partial sharing of hosts (for example, a large SMP computer) among
different consumers or workload managers. When MBD_USE_EGO_MXJ is set, LSF
schedules jobs based on the number of slots allocated from EGO. For example, if hostA has
4 processors, but EGO allocates 2 slots to an EGO-enabled SLA consumer. LSF can schedule
a maximum of 2 jobs from that SLA on hostA.
