Passing data between esub and eexec
A combination of esub and eexec executables can be used to pass AFS/DCE tokens from the
submission host to the execution host. LSF passes data from the standard output of esub to
the standard input of eexec. A daemon wrapper script can be used to renew the tokens.
Configuration to modify job submission and execution controls
There are configuration parameters that modify various aspects of job submission and
execution controls behavior by:
•
Defining a mandatory esub that applies to all jobs in the cluster
•
Specifying the eexec user account (UNIX only)
Configuration to define a mandatory esub
Configuration file
Parameter and syntax Behavior
lsf.conf LSB_ESUB_METHOD="esub_applicat
ion [esub_application] …"
•
The specified esub or esubs run for
all jobs submitted to the cluster, in
addition to any esub specified by the
user in the command line
•
For example, to specify a mandatory
esub named esub.fluent, define
LSB_ESUB_METHOD=fluent
Configuration to specify the eexec user account
The eexec executable runs under the submission user account. You can modify this behavior
for UNIX hosts by specifying a different user account.
Configuration file
Parameter and syntax Behavior
lsf.sudoers
LSF_EEXEC_USER=
user_name
•
Changes the user account under which eexec runs
