IBM Spectrum LSF 10.1 Fix 468711 Readme File

Abstract 

P102378. This fix resolves memory leak issues when the resource connector and LSF multicluster capability are both enabled. This fix supports exclusive resource definitions in the resource connector template for demand calculations. 

Description

Readme documentation for IBM Spectrum LSF 10.1 Fix 468711 including installation-related instructions, prerequisites and co-requisites, and list of fixes.

This fix addresses the following issue:

When the resource connector is enabled, the ebrokerd daemon might have memory leaks for each host transition.

When the resource connector is enabled with the LSF multicluster capability, the mbatchd daemon might have memory leaks for each periodic update.

When an exclusive resource is defined in the resource connector template, the mbatchd daemon silently ignores the template. The template is not used for the resource connector demand calculations.
