LSF Version 7.3 - Platform LSF Configuration Reference

License Scheduler reports a distribution policy violation when the total number of licenses
given to the LSF workload, both free and in use, is less than the LSF workload distribution
specified in WORKLOAD_DISTRIBUTION. If License Scheduler finds a distribution policy
violation, it creates or overwrites the LSF_LOGDIR/
bld.violation.service_domain_name.log file and runs the user command specified by
the CMD keyword.
Example
The LicenseServer1 service domain has a total of 80 licenses, and its workload distribution
and enforcement is configured as follows:
Begin Parameter
...
DISTRIBUTION_POLICY_VIOLATION_ACTION=(PERIOD 5 CMD /bin/mycmd)
...
End Parameter
Begin Feature
NAME=ApplicationX
DISTRIBUTION=LicenseServer1(Lp1 1 Lp2 2)
WORKLOAD_DISTRIBUTION=LicenseServer1(LSF 8 NON_LSF 2)
End Feature
According to this configuration, 80% of the available licenses, or 64 licenses, are available to
the LSF workload. License Scheduler checks the service domain for a violation every five
scheduling cycles, and runs the /bin/mycmd command if it finds a violation.
If the current LSF workload license usage is 50 and the number of free licenses is 10, the total
number of licenses assigned to the LSF workload is 60. This is a violation of the workload
distribution policy because this is less than the specified LSF workload distribution of 64
licenses.
ENABLE_INTERACTIVE
Syntax
ENABLE_INTERACTIVE=Y
Description
Optional. Globally enables one share of the licenses for interactive tasks.
Tip:
By default, ENABLE_INTERACTIVE is not set. License Scheduler
allocates licenses equally to each cluster and does not distribute
licenses for interactive tasks.
EXT_FILTER_PORT
Syntax
EXT_FILTER_PORT=integer
Description
Defines the TCP listening port used by all external plugins to communicate with License
Scheduler hosts. Specify any non-privileged port number.
