LSF Version 7.3 - Using Platform LSF HPC

Migrating IBM Load Leveler Job Scripts to Use LSF
Options
You can integrate LSF with your POE jobs by modifying your job scripts to convert
POE Load Leveler options to LSF options. After modifying your job scripts, your LSF
job submission will be equivalent to a POE job submission:
bsub < jobscript becomes equivalent to Llsubmit jobCmdFile
The following POE options are handled differently when converting to LSF options:
◆ US (User Space) options
◆ IP (Internet Protocol) options
◆ -nodes combinations
◆ Other Load Leveler directives
US options
Use the following combinations of US options as a guideline for converting them to LSF
options.
IP options
For IP jobs that do not use a switch, adapter_use does not apply. Use the following
combinations of IP options as a guideline for converting them to LSF options.
bsub -a poe -R "select[adapter_windows>0
&& us_tasks==0]
rusage[adapter_windows=1: us_tasks=1:
dedicated_tasks=1]
bsub -a poe -R "select[adapter_windows>0
&&
dedicated_tasks==0]rusage[adapter_window
s=1: us_tasks=1]"
◆ Set MXJ to ! for the hosts on which these
jobs will run
◆ The slots can only run these jobs
bsub -a poe -R "select[adapter_windows>0
&& us_tasks=0]
rusage[adapter_windows=1: us_tasks=1:
dedicated_tasks=1]"
bsub -a poe -R "select[adapter_windows>0
&&
dedicated_tasks==0]"Rusage[adapter_windo
ws=1:us_tasks=1]"
◆ Set MXJ ( ) for the hosts on which these
jobs will run
◆ The hosts can only run these jobs
bsub -R "rusage[ip_tasks=1]"
◆ Set MXJ to ! for the hosts on which these
jobs will run
◆ The slots can only run these jobs
bsub -R "rusage[ip_tasks=1]"
◆ Set MXJ ( ) for the hosts on which these
jobs will run
◆ The hosts can only run these jobs
