The new issues addressed in LSF Version 9.1.3 Fix Pack 10:
ID |
Fixed Date |
Description |
P102587 |
2018/05/23 |
The bhist and bacct commands show a CPU time that is longer than the actual amount for a job when its pre-execution command fails. |
P102583 |
2018/05/28 |
When cgroup enforcement is enabled for GPUs, jobs that require more GPUs (2 out of 2 available GPUs or 3 - 4 out of 4 available GPUs) often get terminated. The percentage of failure is close to 100%. |
P102447 |
2017/12/07 |
The "lim -t" command might show incorrect types and cores on some new processors. This fix resolves these issues by updating to a later version of the hardware locality (hwloc) library. |
P102437 |
2017/12/06 |
Ensure that jobs can be cleaned even if the first execution host was in unreach status but later came back to ok status. |
P102418 |
2017/11/06 |
When a job is running on an execution host that is in unreach status and the job RES process exits successfully, if a new program reuses the pid of the job RES process, LSF might set the wrong status for the job once the host comes back to ok status. |
P102415 |
2017/11/07 |
Resolves an issue with the badmin reconfig command being slow because the mbatchd daemon is attempting to resolve compute unit names. |
P102414 |
2017/11/07 |
When running the bkill command to kill a parallel job that has multiple running processes, there is a delay between the time stamp of the KILL signal and the time stamp of the EXIT message in job's bhist output. |
P102338 |
2017/08/25 |
Allows the NIOS process to exit and prevents the CPU usage from being at 100% if a job that was submitted using the bsub -XF command is automatically requeued. |
P102333 |
2017/08/25 |
For a parallel job with alternative resource requirements such as "rusage[resA || resB || resC...]" only some of the specified resources are sufficient. The job is pending because of insufficient slots, but LSF reports the wrong pending reason.
|
P102330 |
2017/08/14 |
The duration of memory resources is not ignored on the hosts in the guarantee resource pool that do not have guaranteed memory resources. |
159805 |
2017/08/14 |
Correct the bhist message of MC job status. |
