LSF_DYNAMIC_HOST_WAIT_TIME

Syntax

LSF_DYNAMIC_HOST_WAIT_TIME=time_seconds

Description

Defines the length of time in seconds that a dynamic host waits communicating with the management host LIM to either add the host to the cluster or to shut down any running daemons if the host is not added successfully.
Note: To enable dynamically added hosts, the following parameters must be defined:
  • LSF_DYNAMIC_HOST_WAIT_TIME in lsf.conf
  • LSF_HOST_ADDR_RANGE in lsf.cluster.cluster_name

Recommended value

An integer greater than zero, up to 60 seconds for every 1000 hosts in the cluster, for a maximum of 15 minutes. Selecting a smaller value results in a quicker response time for hosts at the expense of an increased load on the management host LIM.

Example

LSF_DYNAMIC_HOST_WAIT_TIME=60

A host waits 60 seconds from startup to send a request for the management host LIM to add it to the cluster or to shut down any daemons if it is not added to the cluster.

Default

Not defined. Dynamic hosts cannot join the cluster.
