Usage
264 Platform LSF Command Reference
If you do not want load information to be displayed on your screen at the same time,
use lsmon -L file_name < /dev/null. The format of the file is described in
lim.acct(5).
host_name ... Displays only load information for the specified hosts.
-h Prints command usage to stderr and exits.
-V Prints LSF release version to stderr and exits.
Usage
You can use the following commands while lsmon is running:
[^L | i | n | N | E | R | q]
^L Refreshes the screen.
i Prompts you to input a new update interval.
n Prompts you to input a new number of hosts to display.
N Toggles between displaying raw CPU run queue length load indices and
normalized CPU run queue length load indices.
E Toggles between displaying raw CPU run queue length load indices and effective
CPU run queue length load indices.
R Prompts you to input new resource requirements.
q Quits lsmon.
Output
The following fields are displayed by default.
HOST_NAME
Name of specified hosts for which load information is displayed, or if resource
requirements were specified, name of hosts that satisfied the specified resource
requirement and for which load information is displayed.
status
Status of the host. A minus sign (-) may precede the status, indicating that the
Remote Execution Server (RES) on the host is not running.
Possible statuses are:
ok
The host is in normal load sharing state and can accept remote jobs.
busy
The host is overloaded because some load indices exceed configured thresholds.
Load index values that caused the host to be busy are preceded by an asterisk (
*).
Built-in load indices include
r15s, r1m, r15m, ut, pg, io, ls, it, swp, mem and tmp
(see below). External load indices are configured in the file
lsf.cluster.cluster_name.
