LSF Version 7.3 - Platform LSF Configuration Reference
slave.config
About slave.config
Dynamically added LSF hosts that will not be master candidates are slave hosts. Each dynamic
slave host has its own LSF binaries and local lsf.conf and shell environment scripts
(cshrc.lsf and profile.lsf). You must install LSF on each slave host.
The slave.config file contains options for installing and configuring a slave host that can
be dynamically added or removed.
Use lsfinstall -s -f slave.config to install LSF using the options specified in
slave.config.
Template location
A template slave.config is located in the installation script directory created when you
extract the LSF installation script tar file. Edit the file and uncomment the options you want
in the template file. Replace the example values with your own settings to specify the options
for your new LSF installation.
Important:
The sample values in the slave.config template file are examples
only. They are not default installation values.
Format
Each entry in slave.config has the form:
NAME="STRING1 STRING2 ..."
The equal sign = must follow each NAME even if no value follows and there should be no spaces
around the equal sign.
A value that contains multiple strings separated by spaces must be enclosed in quotation marks.
Blank lines and lines starting with a pound sign (#) are ignored.
