LSF Version 7.3 - Platform LSF Configuration Reference

Description
Required. Specifies how the exported resources are distributed among consumer clusters.
The syntax for the distribution list is a series of share assignments. The syntax of each share
assignment is the cluster name, a comma, and the number of shares, all enclosed in square
brackets, as shown. Use a space to separate multiple share assignments. Enclose the full
distribution list in a set of round brackets.
cluster_name
Specify the name of a remote cluster that will be allowed to use the exported resources. If you
specify a local cluster, the assignment is ignored.
number_shares
Specify a positive integer representing the number of shares of exported resources assigned to
the cluster.
The number of shares assigned to a cluster is only meaningful when you compare it to the
number assigned to other clusters, or to the total number. The total number of shares is just
the sum of all the shares assigned in each share assignment.
MEM
Syntax
MEM=megabytes
Description
Used when exporting special hosts. Specify the amount of memory to export on each host, in
MB.
Default
- (provider and consumer clusters compete for available memory)
SLOTS
Syntax
SLOTS=integer
Description
Required when exporting special hosts. Specify the number of job slots to export on each host.
To avoid overloading a partially exported host, you can reduce the number of job slots in the
configuration of the local cluster.
SWAP
Syntax
SWAP=megabytes
lsb.resources
