Description

Readme documentation for IBM Spectrum LSF 10.1 Fix 466321 including installation-related instructions, prerequisites and co-requisites, and list of fixes.

This fix addresses the following issue:

The format of the job's Ticket Granting Ticket (TGT) file name is jobid_jobindex with a fixed prefix of "lsf_krb5cc_j" and stored in the /tmp directory.

This fix introduces a new parameter named LSB_KRB_TGT_PREFIX for the lsf.conf file to customize the TGT file name prefix.

Syntax

    LSB_KRB_TGT_PREFIX=string

Description:

    This parameter specifies the prefix of the job's Kerberos Ticket Granting Ticket (TGT) after enabling the TGT forwarding feature.

    Valid characters for this parameter are alphanmeric (A-Z, a-z, 0-9), minus sign (-), underscore (_) and period (.).

    The job's TGT is saved in the /tmp directory on the execution host and the file name is LSB_KRB_TGT_PREFIXjobid_jobindex.

    Run badmin hrestart all to make changes take effect.

Default

    The default prefix is "lsf_krb5cc_j".
