Spectrum LSF 10.1 Fix 601893
Abstract
P105051.
Enhancement so that when a job with a user-defined (not automatically attached)
service class is forwarded, the service class is accepted on the execution
cluster, if the service class exists and the job has permission to use the
class.
Description
Readme documentation
for IBM Spectrum LSF 10.1 Fix 601893, including installation-related
instructions, prerequisites and co-requisites, and list of fixes.
When you define the -sla
(service class) option for the bsub command, and the job is forwarded, this
enhancement allows the job to retain the -sla argument in the forwarded cluster if the
following are true:
1. The service class defined exists on
forwarded cluster
2. The job has appropriate access to the
service class defined
Both submission and
execution clusters must be updated for this enhancement to work.

5. Installation and
configuration
Before you
install
LSF_TOP is the full path to the top-level installation directory of LSF.
1.
Before you apply this fix,
ensure that you installed LSF 10.1 Fix Pack 12 or later.
2.
Starting in LSF 10.1 Fix Pack 13, the default values of the following
three GPU parameters are changed to:
LSF_GPU_AUTOCONFIG=Y
LSB_GPU_NEW_SYNTAX=extend
LSF_GPU_RESOURCE_IGNORE=Y
If you have Fix Pack 13 installed, these GPU parameters not configured in the lsf.conf
configuration file will take the default values, and 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:
LSF_GPU_AUTOCONFIG=N
LSB_GPU_NEW_SYNTAX=N
LSF_GPU_RESOURCE_IGNORE=N
