Configuring and running batch jobs on dynamic hosts

Before you run batch jobs on a dynamic host, complete one or all of the following steps, depending on your cluster configuration.

• Configure queues to accept all hosts by defining the HOSTS parameter in the lsb.queues files with the keyword all.
  Jobs submitted to this queue can run on dynamic hosts.
• Define host groups that accept wildcard characters in the HostGroup section of the lsb.hosts file.

  For example, define a host group named linux_hosts and specify a group member linuxrack* in the GROUP_MEMBER parameter in the host group definition.

  Jobs submitted a queue that defines the HOSTS=linux_hosts host group (which contains linuxrack* dynamic hosts) can run on dynamic hosts.
• Add a dynamic host to a host group by using the badmin hghostadd command.
