IBM Spectrum LSF 10.1 Fix 545316 Readme File

Abstract

P103482. This fix enables tasks in the execution side to use the UNIX group information that is set by the user on the client side for lsrun and lsgrun.

Description

Readme documentation for IBM Spectrum LSF 10.1 Fix 545316 including installation-related instructions, prerequisites and co-requisites, and list of fixes.

This fix addresses the following issue:

lsgrun/lsrun is used by the software editor to start shared daemons (between all user jobs or other user jobs running on the same execution host) that are excluded from job accounting. In some cases, these daemons need to preserve the UNIX user groups list to ensure normal operation.

This fix enhances lsgrun/lsrun to also respect the LSF_UGROUP_TRANSFER parameter to use the UNIX group information that is set by the user on the client side.
