LSF Version 7.3 - Running Jobs With Platform LSF
Submitting a job with different levels of host preference
You can indicate different levels of preference by specifying a number after the plus sign
(+). The larger the number, the higher the preference for that host or host group. You
can also specify the
+ with the keyword others.
For example:
bsub -m "groupA+2 groupB+1 groupC" myjob
In this example, LSF gives first preference to hosts in groupA, second preference to
hosts in
groupB and last preference to those in groupC. Ordering within a group is still
determined by load.
You can use the
bmgroup command to display configured host groups.
Submitting a job with resource requirements
To submit a job which will run on Solaris 7 or Solaris 8:
bsub -R "sol7 || sol8" myjob
When you submit a job, you can also exclude a host by specifying a resource requirement
using
hname resource:
bsub -R "hname!=hostb && type==sgi6" myjob
