Add new resources to your cluster

Procedure

  1. Log in to any host in the cluster as the LSF administrator.
  2. Define new resources in the Resource section of lsf.shared. Specify at least a name and a brief description, which is displayed to a user by lsinfo.
  3. For static Boolean resources and static or dynamic string resources, for all hosts that have the new resources, add the resource name to the RESOURCES column in the Host section of lsf.cluster.cluster_name.
  4. For shared resources, for all hosts that have the new resources, associate the resources with the hosts (you might also have a reason to configure non-shared resources in this section).
  5. Run lsadmin reconfig to reconfigure LIM.
  6. Run badmin mbdrestart to restart mbatchd.
