About lsf.cluster
This is the cluster configuration file. There is one for each cluster, called
lsf.cluster.cluster_name. The cluster_name suffix is the name of the cluster defined in
the Cluster section of lsf.shared. All LSF hosts are listed in this file, along with the list of
LSF administrators and the installed LSF features.
The lsf.cluster.cluster_name file contains two types of configuration information:
Cluster definition information — affects all LSF applications. Defines cluster
administrators, hosts that make up the cluster, attributes of each individual host such as
host type or host model, and resources using the names defined in lsf.shared.
LIM policy information — affects applications that rely on LIM job placement policy.
Defines load sharing and job placement policies provided by LIM.
Changing lsf.cluster configuration
After making any changes to lsf.cluster.cluster_name, run the following commands:
lsadmin reconfig to reconfigure LIM
badmin mbdrestart to restart mbatchd
