LSB_STAGE_STORAGE
Specifies the resource name to report available storage space for direct data staging (for example, IBM CAST burst buffer).
Syntax
LSB_STAGE_STORAGE=resource_name [total_resource_name]Description
Optionally, specify the resource name to report the total storage space for direct data staging as the second resource name. This prevents LSF from assigning more storage than is available because the resource information is out of date. This can occur for direct data staging jobs where the job handles the file transfer instead of LSF because LSF cannot reliably predict the storage usage for these jobs.
If both resource names are specified, the resource to report the available storage must be configured as a dynamic, decreasing, and numeric, while the resource to report the maximum storage must be configured as numeric.
If only one resource name is specified, the resource must be configured as a dynamic, decreasing resource. LSF assumes that the total storage space on the host is the sum of the reported available storage space, the reserved space, and the used space. The reserved space is storage space that is assigned to jobs that have a plan, but have not completed the stage in operation. The used space is storage space that is assigned to jobs that completed the stage in operation, but has not completed the stage out operation.
Examples
LSB_STAGE_STORAGE=ssdThe ssd resource reports the available storage space. LSF
estimates that the total storage space available is the sum of the available storage space, the
storage space that is reserved for planned jobs, and the storage space that is used by jobs that
completed the stage in operation (but not the stage out operation).
LSB_STAGE_STORAGE=ssd ssd_maxThe ssd resource reports the available storage
space. The ssd_max resource reports the total storage space.
Default
