LSF Version 7.3 - Platform LSF Configuration Reference

lsb.serviceclasses
The lsb.serviceclasses file defines the service-level agreements (SLAs) in an LSF cluster as service classes, which
define the properties of the SLA.
This file is optional.
You can configure as many service class sections as you need.
Use bsla to display the properties of service classes configured in lsb.serviceclasses and dynamic information
about the state of each configured service class.
By default, lsb.serviceclasses is installed in LSB_CONFDIR/cluster_name/configdir.
Changing lsb.serviceclasses configuration
After making any changes to lsb.serviceclasses, run badmin reconfig to reconfigure
mbatchd.
lsb.serviceclasses structure
Each service class definition begins with the line Begin ServiceClass and ends with the line
End ServiceClass.
