IBM Platform LSF 9.1.2 Fix 241802 Readme File
Abstract
APAR P100573. Fix to allow compute unit resource requirements to work with leased-in hosts.
Description
Readme documentation for IBM Platform LSF 9.1.2 Fix 241802 including installation-related instructions, prerequisites and co-requisites, and list of fixes.
This fix addresses the following issue:
Compute unit resource requirements cannot work with leased-in hosts.
1. This fix allows you to specify leased-in hosts in the definition of a compute unit
For example
Begin ComputeUnit
NAME MEMBER TYPE
en1 (host1@mc1) (enclosure)
en2 (ho*@mc1) (enclosure)
End ComputeUnit
Note: You must define a valid host name of a leased-in host in the MEMBER column.
The “badmin reconfig” command does not log an error or warning message if you specify an invalid host name. mbatchd only logs the error or warning message in the mbatchd log file after mbatchd getes the leased-in host information from the remote cluster.
2. This fix allows dynamic hosts and leased-in hosts join in a compute unit (after you run “badmin reconfig” to apply the changes). This allows jobs with a compute unit resource requirement to be dispatched to the new dynamic hosts and leased-in hosts.
