IBM Platform LSF 9.1.3 Fix 450524 Readme File

Abstract

RFE #98712, RFE #92576, RFE #79255 . Performance improvements for daemons.wrap. Also provides the failure reason for daemons.wrap.

Description

Readme documentation for IBM Platform LSF 9.1.3 Fix 450524 including installation-related instructions, prerequisites and co-requisites, and list of fixes.

This fix addresses the following issue:

This solution improves the performance of daemons.wrap by not checking the ClearCase view and provides the failure reason of "cleartool setview" called by daemons.wrap in bjobs -l, bhist -l, bstatus and bread. This solution also adds pid in daemons.wrap.log.

After applying this solution, the ClearCase view set by CLEARCASE_ROOT will not be checked under any condition. This means NOCHECKVIEW_POSTEXEC will be unused from now on.

The ClearCase environment will be set directly by "cleartool setview" in daemons.wrap. And the failure reason will be passed to mbatchd by the bpost command. Using bjobs -l, bhist -l, bstatus, or bread will display the message.
