IBM Platform LSF 9.1.3 Fix 445073 Readme File

Abstract

P102141. This fix allows the bmgroup command to display host groups with names that contain the text "others".

Description

Readme documentation for IBM Platform LSF 9.1.3 Fix 445073 including installation-related instructions, prerequisites and co-requisites, and list of fixes.

This fix addresses the following issue:

The bmgroup command does not display a host groups with names that contain the text "others".

NOTE: While this fix allows the bmgroup to display host groups groups with names that contain the text "others", you still cannot use "others" as the only word in the host group name because this is a reserved keyword in LSF.
That is, bmgroup displays host groups with names such as "group_others" or "others1", but LSF still does not allow host groups to be named "others".
