LSF Version 7.3 - Using Platform LSF HPC

Configuring LSF to Work with Open MPI
◆ The mpirun command must be included in the $PATH environment variable on all
LSF hosts.
◆ Make sure LSF uses system host official names (/etc/hosts): this will prevent
problems when you run the application.
❖ Configure the $LSF_CONFDIRDIR/hosts file and the
$LSF_ENVDIR/lsf.cluster.<clustername> file.
For example:
172.25.238.91 scali scali.lsf.platform.com
172.25.238.96 scali1 scali1.lsf.plaform.com
❖ If the official host name returned to LSF is a short name, but LSF commands
display host names that include domain names, you can use
LSF_STRIP_DOMAIN in lsf.conf to display the short names.
No other configuration is required. Optionally, you can add the
openmpi resource
name under the RESOURCES column of the Host section of
lsf.cluster. cluster_name to indicate the hosts in the cluster that have Open
MPI installed and enabled.
