IBM® Spectrum LSF 10.1 Fix 600989 Readme File

Abstract

P104552. The fix ensures that regular users can use the lsrun and lsgrun commands if they are running these commands from a host in the LSF_ADDON_HOSTS parameter.

Description

Readme documentation for IBM® Spectrum LSF 10.1 Fix 600989 including installation-related instructions, prerequisites and co-requisites, and list of fixes.

This fix addresses the following issue:

RES refuses remote connections from the lsrun and lsgrun commands even if the requests come from hosts that are specified in the LSF_ADDON_HOSTS parameter in the lsf.conf file, unless the user is either an LSF administrator or root.

This problem occurs when LSF_DISABLE_LSRUN=Y is enabled in the LSF cluster. This fix ensures that the LSF_ADDON_HOSTS parameter takes precedence by allowing remote connections from lsrun and lsgrun commands in these hosts.
