IBM Platform LSF 9.1.1 Fix 248685 Readme File

Abstract

APAR P100841. Fix to report job swap usage, which includes job memory usage.

Description

Readme documentation for IBM Platform LSF 9.1.1 Fix 248685 including installation-related instructions, prerequisites and co-requisites, and list of fixes.

This fix addresses the following issue:

Introduce a new parameter to change the report value of job swap usage. This parameter does not affect the swap limit.

LSB_CGROUP_MEMSWAP_USAGE = Y | N

The parameter takes effect when the LSF cgroup feature is enabled.

- When this parameter is set to Y, LSF reports memory.memsw.usage_in_bytes as the swap usage value for a job.

- When this parameter is set to N, LSF reports memory.memsw.usage_in_bytes - memory.usage_in_bytes as the swap usage value.

Default: N
