Modifying an application template

By default, users can only submit jobs using a generic application form. Administrators must edit the built-in applications to make the applications available to users.

Procedure

  1. Log in to IBM Spectrum LSF Application Center as administrator.
  2. Choose Workload > Definitions > Templates on the Workload tab.
  3. Select an unpublished application (for example, ANSYS).

    If an application is already published, select it and click Unpublish.

  4. Choose Modify and make the desired changes to the application submission form and submission script.

    Whenever you add, delete, or edit input fields, remember to make the corresponding changes to the code in the submission script. Use the field ID to match fields on the form with parameters in the script.

  5. Click Submit Test Job to make sure the application works properly.
  6. Click Save or Save As to save your changes.
  7. Choose Close to close the modify window or click Publish and confirm as prompted.

    Only published applications are available to users.
