LSF Version 7.3 - Using Platform LSF HPC

Run lsfinstall to upgrade
Make sure the following install.config variables are set for upgrade:
◆ ENABLE_HPC_INST=Y enables Platform LSF installation
◆ LSF_TARDIR specifies the location of distribution packages for upgrade. For
example:
LSF_TARDIR=/tmp
Log on to the file server host as root.
Download, uncompress, and extract lsf7Update3_lsfinstall.tar.Z to the
distribution directory where you downloaded the LSF product distribution tar files.
Change to the directory lsf7Update3_lsfinstall/.
Read lsf7Update3_lsfinstall/install.config or
lsf7Update3_lsfinstall/slave.config and decide which installation
variables you need to set.
Edit lsf7Update3_lsfinstall/install.config or
lsf7Update3_lsfinstall/slave.config.
install.config
Run lsfinstall as root:
# ./lsfinstall -f install.config
Run hostsetup
◆ For SGI IRIX, TRIX, and Altix cpuset hosts, hostsetup adds the cpuset
Boolean resource to the HOSTS section of
lsf.cluster. cluster_name for
each cpuset host.
◆ For HP-UX pset hosts, hostsetup adds the pset Boolean resource to the
HOSTS section of
lsf.cluster. cluster_name for each pset host.
◆ For Linux QsNet hosts, hostsetup:
❖ Configures lsf.cluster. cluster_name to assign the Boolean resource
rms defined in lsf.shared to all LSF hosts that run on an RMS partition
❖ Creates a table named lsfrids in the RMS database. This table is used
internally by LSF
Use the --boot="y" option on hostsetup to configure system scripts to
automatically start and stop LSF daemons at system startup or shutdown. You must run
hostsetup as root to use this option to modify the system scripts. The default is
--boot="n".
For complete
hostsetup usage, enter hostsetup -h.
