IBM Spectrum LSF 10.1 Fix 563746 Readme File

Abstract

P103942. This fix sets the AWS RunInstancesRequest minimal count to 1 to allow users to fully use the AWS vCPU quota.

Description

Readme documentation for IBM® Spectrum LSF 10.1 Fix 563746 including installation-related instructions, prerequisites and co-requisites, and list of fixes.

This fix addresses the following issue:

When LSF requests to create AWS on demand instances, LSF sets the AWS RunInstancesRequest minimal count and maximum count to the number that LSF requests. If the number exceeds the remaining number of vCPU limits in the user AWS account, a InsufficientInstanceCapacity exception occurs and the remaining number of vCPUs cannot be used.

This fix sets the AWS RunInstancesRequest minimal count to 1, then AWS attempts to create as many instances as the user remaining quota, so the AWS vCPU quota can be completely used.
