LSF Version 7.3 - Running Jobs With Platform LSF
Controlling Jobs
LSF controls jobs dispatched to a host to enforce scheduling policies, or in response to
user requests. The LSF system performs the following actions on a job:
◆
Suspend by sending a SIGSTOP signal
◆
Resume by sending a SIGCONT signal
◆
Terminate by sending a SIGKILL signal
On Windows, equivalent functions have been implemented to perform the same tasks.
