Force job execution

You can use the brun command to force a pending or finished job to run. Only LSF administrators can run the brun command.

You can force a job to run on a particular host to run until completion, and other restrictions. For more information, see the brun command.

When a job is forced to run, any other constraints that are associated with the job such as resource requirements or dependency conditions are ignored.

In this situation, some job slot limits, such as the maximum number of jobs that can run on a host, might be violated. A job that is forced to run cannot be preempted.
