LSF Version 7.3 - Platform LSF Configuration Reference

Naming convention
Models that are automatically detected are named according to the following convention:
hardware_platform [_processor_speed[_processor_type]]
where:
•
hardware_platform is the only mandatory component
•
processor_speed is the optional clock speed and is used to differentiate computers within
a single platform
•
processor_type is the optional processor manufacturer used to differentiate processors with
the same speed
•
Underscores (_) between hardware_platform, processor_speed, processor_type are
mandatory.
Resource section
Optional. Defines resources (must be done by the LSF administrator).
Resource section structure
The first line consists of the keywords. RESOURCENAME and DESCRIPTION are
mandatory. The other keywords are optional. Subsequent lines define resources.
Example Resource section
Begin Resource
RESOURCENAME TYPE INTERVAL INCREASING CONSUMABLE DESCRIPTION # Keywords
patchrev Numeric () Y () (Patch revision)
specman Numeric () N () (Specman)
switch Numeric () Y N (Network Switch)
rack String () () () (Server room rack)
owner String () () () (Owner of the host)
elimres Numeric 10 Y () (elim generated index)
End Resource
RESOURCENAME
The name you assign to the new resource. An arbitrary character string.
•
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
TYPE
The type of resource:
