LSF Version 7.3 - Platform LSF Configuration Reference

DEFAULT_JOBGROUP in lsb.params. The bsub -g job_group_name option overrides

both LSB_DEFAULT_JOBGROUP and DEFAULT_JOBGROUP.

If you submit a job without the -g option of bsub, but you defined

LSB_DEFAULT_JOBGROUP, then the job belongs to the job group specified in

LSB_DEFAULT_JOBGROUP.

Job group names must follow this format:

•

Job group names must start with a slash character (/). For example,

LSB_DEFAULT_JOBGROUP=/A/B/C is correct, but LSB_DEFAULT_JOBGROUP=A/B/C is

not correct.

•

Job group names cannot end with a slash character (/). For example,

LSB_DEFAULT_JOBGROUP=/A/ is not correct.

•

Job group names cannot contain more than one slash character (/) in a row. For example,

job group names like LSB_DEFAULT_JOBGROUP=/A//B or

LSB_DEFAULT_JOBGROUP=A////B are not correct.

•

Job group names cannot contain spaces. For example, LSB_DEFAULT_JOBGROUP=/A/B

C/D is not correct.

•

Project names and user names used for macro substitution with %p and %u cannot start

or end with slash character (/).

•

Project names and user names used for macro substitution with %p and %u cannot contain

spaces or more than one slash character (/) in a row.

•

Project names or user names containing slash character (/) will create separate job groups.

For example, if the project name is canada/projects, LSB_DEFAULT_JOBGROUP=/%

p results in a job group hierarchy /canada/projects.
