EGROUP_UPDATE_INTERVAL

Syntax

EGROUP_UPDATE_INTERVAL=hours | minutes m

Description

Specify a time interval for which dynamic user group information in the lsb.users file and dynamic host group information in the lsb.hosts file is updated automatically. Specify the time interval in hours or use the m suffix to specify the time interval in minutes. There is no need to run badmin reconfig.

You can also specify LSB_START_EBROKERD=Y in the lsf.conf file to get a better mbatchd daemon performance for a large cluster.

In the LSF_SERVERDIR, there must be an executable file named egroup to manage the host and user group members. When EGROUP_UPDATE_INTERVAL is set, and the time interval is matched, LSF gets the updated members from egroup.

If this parameter is not set, you must update the host and user groups manually by running the badmin reconfig command.
