280 Platform LSF Command Reference
This command has the same function as the external command lsrtasks, except
that the modified remote task list takes effect immediately for the current
lstcsh
session.
See
lsrtasks(1) for more details.
lsltasks [+ task_name ... | - task_name ...]
Displays or update a user’s local task list in the user’s task list $HOME/.lsftask.
This command has the same function as the external command
lsltasks, except
that the modified local task list takes effect immediately for the current
lstcsh
session.
See
lsltasks(1) for more details.
jobs Lists background jobs together with the execution hosts. This break of transparency
is intentional in order to provide you with more control over your background jobs.
Files
There are three optional configuration files for lstcsh:
.shrc
.hostrc
.lsftask
The .shrc and .hostrc files are used by lstcsh alone, whereas .lsftask is used
by LSF to determine general task eligibility.
~/.shrc
Use this file when you want an execution environment on remote hosts that is
different from that on the local host. This file is sourced automatically on a remote
host when a connection is established. For example, if the remote host is of different
type, you may need to run a version of the executable for that particular host type,
therefore it may be necessary to set a different path on the remote host.
~/.hostrc
Use this file to indicate a list of host names to which the user wants to be connected
(asynchronously in the background) at
lstcsh startup time. This saves the time
spent in establishing the connections dynamically during execution of shell
commands. Once a connection is set up, you can execute further remote commands
on those connected hosts with very little overhead.
~/.lsftask
Use this file to specify lists of remote and local tasks that you want to be added to
the respective system default lists. Each line of this file is of the form
task_name/res_req, where task_name is the name of a task, and res_req is a string
specifying the resource requirements of the task. If res_req is not specified, the
command is executed on machines of the same type as the local host.
