Synopsis

-data [-datachk]

Description

For jobs with a data requirement, this command option forces the bsub and bmod commands to perform the following operations on the files or folders:

  • Sanity check to see if the files or folders exist
  • Check whether the submission user can access the files or folders
  • Discover the size and modification times of the files or folders
  • Generate a hash for each file or folder

If you do not specify this command option, these operations occur at the transfer job by default. You can also force the bsub and bmod commands to perform these operations by setting the LSF_DATA_BSUB_CHKSUM parameter to y or Y in the lsf.conf file.

This option only works for jobs with a data requirement. If the data requirement is for a tag, this option has no effect.
