LSF Version 7.3 - Platform LSF Configuration Reference
•
Boolean—Resources that have a value of 1 on hosts that have the resource and 0 otherwise.
•
Numeric—Resources that take numerical values, such as all the load indices, number of
processors on a host, or host CPU factor.
•
String— Resources that take string values, such as host type, host model, host status.
Default
If TYPE is not given, the default type is Boolean.
INTERVAL
Optional. Applies to dynamic resources only.
Defines the time interval (in seconds) at which the resource is sampled by the ELIM.
If INTERVAL is defined for a numeric resource, it becomes an external load index.
Default
If INTERVAL is not given, the resource is considered static.
INCREASING
Applies to numeric resources only.
If a larger value means greater load, INCREASING should be defined as Y. If a smaller value
means greater load, INCREASING should be defined as N.
CONSUMABLE
Explicitly control if a resource is consumable. Applies to static or dynamic numeric resources.
Static and dynamic numeric resources can be specified as consumable. CONSUMABLE is
optional. The defaults for the consumable attribute are:
•
Built-in indicies:
•
The following are consumable: r15s, r1m, r15m, ut, pg, io, ls, it, tmp, swp, mem.
•
All other built-in static resources are not consumable. (e.g., ncpus, ndisks, maxmem,
maxswp, maxtmp, cpuf, type, model, status, rexpri, server, hname).
•
External shared resources:
•
All numeric resources are consumable.
•
String and boolean resources are not consumable.
You should only specify consumable resources in the rusage section of a resource requirement
string. Non-consumable resources are ignored in rusage sections.
A non-consumable resource should not be releasable. Non-consumable numeric resource
should be able to used in order, select and same sections of a resource requirement string.
When LSF_STRICT_RESREQ=Y in lsf.conf, LSF rejects resource requirement strings
where an rusage section contains a non-consumable resource.
DESCRIPTION
Brief description of the resource.
The information defined here will be returned by the ls_info() API call or printed out by
the lsinfo command as an explanation of the meaning of the resource.
