Resource management

The following new features affect resource management and allocation.

Running LSF jobs with IBM Cluster Systems Manager

LSF now allows you to run jobs with IBM Cluster Systems Manager (CSM).

The CSM integration allows you to run LSF jobs with CSM features.

Direct data staging

LSF now allows you to run direct data staging jobs, which uses a burst buffer (for example, IBM CAST burst buffer) instead of the cache to stage in and stage out data for data jobs.

Use the CSM integration to configure LSF to run burst buffer data staging jobs.
