1. Configure IBM Spectrum LSF for DCV for Linux

Add the resource dcv_linux to the $LSF_ENVDIR/lsf.shared and $LSF_ENVDIR/lsf.cluster files.

1. Log on to the LSF® management host as the LSF administrator.
2. Set your LSF environment.

   For csh or tcsh:

   % source LSF_TOP/conf/cshrc.lsf

   For sh, ksh, or bash:

   $ . LSF_TOP/conf/profile.lsf

3. Edit the file $LSF_ENVDIR/lsf.shared and add the resource dcv_linux:

   Begin Resource
   RESOURCENAME  TYPE    INTERVAL INCREASING  DESCRIPTION        # Keywords
   dcv_linux      Boolean ()       ()          (dcv_linux resource type)
   End Resource

4. Edit the file $LSF_ENVDIR/lsf.cluster and add the dcv_linux resource to each LSF server host (application host).

   For example, your application hosts are dcv_vm1 and dcv_vm2:

   Begin   Host
   HOSTNAME  model    type        server r1m  mem  swp  RESOURCES   #Keywords
   dcv_vm1   !   !   1   3.5   ()   ()   (dcv_linux)
   dcv_vm2   !   !   1   3.5   ()   ()   (dcv_linux)
   End Host

5. Configure LSF so that each LSF server host (application host) only has 1 job slot. Complete this step only if LSF server hosts (application hosts) have more than 1 CPU.

   This is required so that only one application can run at the same time on the host and DCV works properly.

   Edit the file $LSF_ENVDIR/lsb.hosts and set MXJ to 1 for each LSF server host.

6. Run the lsadmin reconfig and badmin reconfig commands to make your changes take effect.
