IBM Platform LSF 9.1.3 Fix 374551 Readme File

Abstract

P101478. This fix prevents sbatchd from incorrectly logging messages about changing the job level temporary directory.

Description

Readme documentation for IBM Platform LSF 9.1.3 Fix 374551 including installation-related instructions, prerequisites and co-requisites, and list of fixes.

This fix addresses the following issue:

sbatchd incorrectly logs the following message for each job regardless of whether the job level temporary directory can be accessed:

"createJobTmpDir: Job level tmp directory is set to /tmp/.tmpdir"

After this fix, sbatchd only logs the message if the job's temporary directory as configured by LSB_JOB_TMPDIR cannot be accessed and must therefore be set to the /tmp directory.
