Synopsis

bsub -C core_limit

Description

For more information, see getrlimit(2).

By default, the limit is specified in KB. Use LSF_UNIT_FOR_LIMITS in lsf.conf to specify a larger unit for the limit (MB, GB, TB, PB, or EB).

The behavior of this option depends on platform-specific UNIX or Linux systems.

In some cases, the process is sent a SIGXFSZ signal if the job attempts to create a core file larger than the specified limit. The SIGXFSZ signal normally terminates the process.

In other cases, the writing of the core file terminates at the specified limit.
