5. Installation and configuration

Before you install

LSF_TOP is the full path to the top-level installation directory of IBM Spectrum LSF.

1. Before you apply this fix, ensure that you install LSF 10.1 Fix Pack 12 or later. You can download Fix Pack 12 or later from https://www.ibm.com/support/fixcentral.

2. Starting from 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, and these above GPU parameters not configured in the lsf.conf configuration file will take the default values. 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
