HP XC System Software Installation Guide Version 3.1

I LSF Installation Values
This appendix lists the LSF values that were configured for the system during the HP XC System Software
installation process.
For more information about setting LSF environment variables and parameters listed in Table I-1, see the
Platform LSF Reference manual.
Table I-1 Default Installation Values for LSF
Where is this Value Stored?DescriptionValueEnvironment Variable
lsb.params file
This value is set to 0 when LSF-HPC
with SLURM is installed, and is set
with the default (1) when standard
LSF is installed.
This environment variable controls
how many jobs are dispatched to a
host during a scheduling cycle.
Because the HP XC system is
considered one host when LSF-HPC
with SLURM is installed, this value
is set to 0 to allow the scheduler to
dispatch as many jobs as possible on
HP XC during each scheduling cycle.
1JOB_ACCEPT_INTERVAL
lsb.params file
Controls the maximum number of
files mbatchd can have open and
connected to sbatchd.
32MAX_SBD_CONNS

Specifies the mail program to use.
sendmailLSB_MAILPROG
lsf.conf file

between the LSF HPC allocation
adapter (RLA), sbatchd and the
SLURM scheduler plug-in.
6883LSB_RLA_PORT
lsf.conf file
This environment variable is needed
so that LSF commands that are
launched from the rest of the HP XC
nodes know to which nodes to send
their requests. This environment
variable is not needed for standard
LSF.
lsfhost.localdomainLSF_SERVER_HOSTS
lsf.conf file
Displays an abbreviated list of hosts
in bjobs and bhist for a parallel
job when multiple processes of a job
are running on a host.

/opt/hptc/lib/libsyslic.soXC_LIBLIC
lsf.conf file
When LSF commands are run by the
root user, this variable configures
them to communicate using
non-privileged ports (> 1024).
YLSF_NON_PRIVILEGED_PORTS
lsf.conf file
Controls how often LSF synchronizes
with SLURM. This variable is not
needed for standard LSF.

Defines the location of the LSF
license. A special LSF license is not
required for HP XC.
