LSF Version 7.3 - Platform LSF Configuration Reference

LSF_TS_LOGON_TIME

Syntax

LSF_TS_LOGON_TIME=milliseconds

Description

Specifies the time to create a Windows Terminal Service session. Configure

LSF_TS_LOGON_TIME according to the load on your network enviroment.

The default, 30000 milliseconds, is suitable for most environments. If you set

LSF_TS_LOGON_TIME too small, the LSF tries multiple times before it succeeds in making

a TS session with the TS server, which can cause the job wait a long time before it runs. For a

congested network. set LSF_TS_LOGON_TIME=1000000.

Where defined

From the command line

Default

30000 milliseconds

LSF_USE_HOSTEQUIV

Syntax

LSF_USE_HOSTEQUIV=y | Y

Description

Used for authentication purposes. If LSF_USE_HOSTEQUIV is defined, RES and mbatchd

call the ruserok(3) function to decide if a user is allowed to run remote jobs. LSF trusts all

hosts configured in the LSF cluster that are defined in hosts.equiv, or in .rhosts in the

user’s home directory.

The ruserok(3) function checks in the /etc/hosts.equiv file and the user’s

$HOME/.rhosts file to decide if the user has permission to execute remote jobs.

If LSF_USE_HOSTEQUIV is not defined, all normal users in the cluster can execute remote

jobs on any host.

If LSF_ROOT_REX is set, root can also execute remote jobs with the same permission test as

for normal users.

Default

Not defined
