Task limits

TASKLIMIT in an application profile specifies the maximum number of tasks that can be allocated to a job. For parallel jobs, TASKLIMIT is the maximum number of tasks that can be allocated to the job.

You can optionally specify the minimum and default number of tasks. All limits must be positive integers greater than or equal to 1 that satisfy the following relationship:

1 <= minimum <= default <= maximum

Job-level tasks limits (bsub -n) override application-level TASKLIMIT, which overrides queue-level TASKLIMIT. Job-level limits must fall within the maximum and minimum limits of the application profile and the queue.
