If you have Fix Pack 13 installed, and these GPU parameters are not configured in the lsf.conf configuration file, the default values will be used The parameters already configured in the lsf.conf file will not be affected.

If you want to keep the former GPU behavior, and if any of the three parameters are missing in the lsf.conf configuration file, you must explicitly configure the following default settings that are defined in Fix Pack 12 or earlier:
