IBM Spectrum LSF 10.1 Fix 464606 Readme File

Abstract

P102329: This fix ensures that the parameter LSB_MAX_JOB_DISPATCH_PER_SESSION has the same value for both mbschd and mbatchd.

Description

Readme documentation for IBM Spectrum LSF 10.1 Fix 464606 including installation-related instructions, prerequisites and co-requisites, and list of fixes.

This fix addresses the following issue:

Currently, no matter how many CPUs are configured in a cluster, the default value of LSB_MAX_JOB_DISPATCH_PER_SESSION in mbschd will always be set as 300. 

This fix ensures the default value of  LSB_MAX_JOB_DISPATCH_PER_SESSION in mbschd can be calculated based on the total CPUs in LSF, which is the same for mbatchd.
