LSF Version 7.3 - Platform LSF Configuration Reference
RESOURCENAME
Description
Name of the resource
This resource name must be defined in the Resource section of lsf.shared. You must specify
at least a name and description for the resource, using the keywords RESOURCENAME and
DESCRIPTION.
•
A resource name cannot begin with a number.
•
A resource name cannot contain any of the following characters:
: . ( ) [ + - * / ! & | < > @ =
•
A resource name cannot be any of the following reserved names:
cpu cpuf io logins ls idle maxmem maxswp maxtmp type model status it
mem ncpus define_ncpus_cores define_ncpus_procs
define_ncpus_threads ndisks pg r15m r15s r1m swap swp tmp ut
•
To avoid conflict with inf and nan keywords in 3rd-party libraries, resource names should
not begin with inf or nan (upper case or lower case). Resource requirment strings, such as
-R "infra" or -R "nano" will cause an error. Use -R "defined(infxx)" or -R
"defined(nanxx)", to specify these resource names.
•
Resource names are case sensitive
•
Resource names can be up to 39 characters in length
RemoteClusters section
Optional. This section is used only in a MultiCluster environment. By default, the local cluster
can obtain information about all other clusters specified in lsf.shared. The RemoteClusters
section limits the clusters that the local cluster can obtain information about.
The RemoteClusters section is required if you want to configure cluster equivalency, cache
interval, daemon authentication across clusters, or if you want to run parallel jobs across
clusters. To maintain compatibility in this case, make sure the list includes all clusters specified
in lsf.shared, even if you only configure the default behavior for some of the clusters.
The first line consists of keywords. CLUSTERNAME is mandatory and the other parameters
are optional.
Subsequent lines configure the remote cluster.
Example RemoteClusters section
Begin RemoteClusters
CLUSTERNAME EQUIV CACHE_INTERVAL RECV_FROM AUTH
cluster1 Y 60 Y KRB
cluster2 N 60 Y -
cluster4 N 60 N PKI
End RemoteClusters
CLUSTERNAME
Description
Remote cluster name
Defines the Remote Cluster list. Specify the clusters you want the local cluster will recognize.
Recognized clusters must also be defined in lsf.shared. Additional clusters listed in
lsf.shared but not listed here will be ignored by this cluster.
