MAX_PEND_SLOTS

Syntax

MAX_PEND_SLOTS=integer

Description

The maximum number of pending job slots available in the system.

This is the hard system-wide pending slots threshold. No user or user group can exceed this limit unless the job is forwarded from a remote cluster.

If the user or user group submitting the job has reached the pending job slots threshold as specified by MAX_PEND_SLOTS, LSF will reject any further job submission requests sent by that user or user group. The system will continue to send the job submission requests with the interval specified by SUB_TRY_INTERVAL in lsb.params until it has made a number of attempts equal to the LSB_NTRIES environment variable. If LSB_NTRIES is not defined and LSF rejects the job submission request, the system will continue to send the job submission requests indefinitely as the default behavior.

Default

2147483647 (Unlimited number of pending jobs.)
