LSF_LIVE_CONFDIR

Syntax

LSF_LIVE_CONFDIR=directory

Description

Enables and disables live reconfiguration (bconf command) and sets the directory where configuration files changed by live reconfiguration are saved. bconf requests will be rejected if the directory does not exist and cannot be created, or is specified using a relative path.

When LSF_LIVE_CONFDIR is defined and contains configuration files, all LSF restart and reconfiguration reads these configuration files instead of the files in LSF_CONFDIR.

After adding or changing LSF_LIVE_CONFDIR in lsf.conf, use badmin mbdrestart and lsadmin reconfig to reconfigure your cluster.

Important:

Remove LSF_LIVE_CONFDIR configuration files or merge files into LSF_CONFDIR before disabling bconf, upgrading LSF, applying patches to LSF, or adding server hosts.

See bconf in the LSF Command Reference or bconf man page for bconf (live reconfiguration) details.

Default

During installation, LSF_LIVE_CONFDIR is set to LSB_SHAREDIR/cluster_name/live_confdir where cluster_name is the name of the LSF cluster, as returned by lsid.
