LSF Version 7.3 - Using Platform LSF HPC
LSF Generic Parallel Job Launcher Framework
Any parallel execution environment (for example a vendor MPI, or an MPI package like
MPICH-GM, MPICH-P4, or LAM/MPI) can be made compatible with LSF using the
generic parallel job launcher (PJL) framework.
All LSF Version 7 distributions support running parallel jobs with the generic PJL
integration.
The generic PJL integration is a framework that allows you to integrate any vendor’s
parallel job launcher with Platform LSF. PAM does not launch the parallel jobs directly,
but manages the job to monitor job resource usage and provide job control over the
parallel tasks.
System requirements
◆
Vendor parallel package is installed and operating properly
◆
LSF cluster is installed and operating properly (LSF Version 5.1 or later, OR
