Usage
ckconfig [-v] Checks LSF configuration files.
-v
Displays detailed messages about configuration file checking.
reconfig [-f] [-v] Restarts LIMs on all hosts in the cluster. You should use reconfig after changing
configuration files. The configuration files are checked before all LIMs in the
cluster are restarted. If the configuration files are not correct, reconfiguration is not
initiated.
If LSF_MASTER_LIST is specified in
lsf.conf, you are prompted to confirm the
reconfiguration for only the master candidate hosts.
-f
Disables user interaction and forces LIM to restart on all hosts in the cluster if no
fatal errors are found. This option is useful in batch mode.
-v
Displays detailed messages about configuration file checking.
limstartup [-f] [host_name ... |all]
Starts LIM on the local host if no arguments are specified.
Starts LIMs on the specified hosts or on all hosts in the cluster if the word
all is the
only argument provided. You are prompted to confirm LIM startup.
Only
root and users listed in the parameter LSF_STARTUP_USERS in
lsf.sudoers(5) can use the all and -f options to start LIM as root.
These users must also be able to use
rsh or ssh on all LSF hosts without having to
type in passwords. If permission to start up LIMs as
root is not configured,
limstartup starts up LIMs as yourself after your confirmation.
The shell command specified by LSF_RSH in
lsf.conf is used before rsh is tried.
-f
Disables interaction and does not ask for confirmation for starting LIMs.
limshutdown [-f] [host_name ... | all]
