IBM Spectrum LSF 10.1 Fix 509168 Readme File
Abstract
P102793: This patch ensures that LSF correctly calculates the CPU time for a job.
Description
Readme documentation for IBM Spectrum LSF 10.1 Fix 509168 including installation-related instructions, prerequisites and co-requisites, and list of fixes.
This fix addresses the following issue:
LSF calculates the CPU time for a sequential single-core bound job higher than the running time.
To resolve this issue, LSF PIM can skip the process information of special processes (that is, processes with pid=-1).
To enable this behavior, define the following parameter in lsf.conf :
LSF_PIM_IGNORE_SPECIAL_PROCESS = Y
When enabled, the LSF PIM will skip the process information of special processes(that is, processes with pid=-1).
However, enabling this behavior means that the PIM might lose the process information of the special processes.
Default: N.
