LSF_GPU_RESOURCE_IGNORE

Enables the mbatchd and mbschd daemons to ignore GPU resources.

Syntax

LSF_GPU_RESOURCE_IGNORE=Y | y | N | n

Description

If set to Y, mbatchd removes GPU resources from mbatchd and mbschd, and mbatchd does not collect GPU resource information from the management host LIM. This means that the lsload -s, lsload -l, and bhosts -l commands, which display LSF resources, no longer display information about GPU resources. That is, this option does not display gpu_<num>n resources. This improves LSF response time because there are fewer LSF resources to manage and display.

In addition, if LSF_GPU_AUTOCONFIG is set to Y and LSB_GPU_NEW_SYNTAX is set to Y or extend, all built-in GPU resources (gpu_<num>n) are completely removed from the management host LIM. LSF uses a different method for the management host LIM and server host LIMs to collect GPU information. This further improves performance by having fewer built-in LSF resources.

Note:
  1. If you are using LSF RTM, Version 10.2 Fix Pack 11 or later, you can configure LSF_GPU_RESOURCE_IGNORE to either Y or N.
  2. If you are using LSF RTM, Version 10.2 Fix Pack 1 or earlier, configure LSF_GPU_RESOURCE_IGNORE to N.

Default

Y
