INCLUDE directive for lsf.cluster file

Its great to have INCLUDE functionality added in LSF and we're using heavily in our multiple LSF clusters. Its makes it easy to manage many clusters for common config edits and keep the farms compliant. I am logging this RFE to extend this feature...

LSF to control SSH sessions on hosts running LSF jobs

We have many users who need to open an SSH session from their IDE ( VSCode, PyCharm) to a cluster machine running their LSF job so they can debug/troubleshoot/test in realtime in an interactive session. While battach works to connect to a cluster ...

Allow resource limit ELIGIBLE_PEND_JOBS usage for APPS

I would like to have a limit ELIGIBLE_PEND_JOBS for the consumer APPS. The reason is an application which needs licenses from a license server. In case of many simultanously dispatched jobs the license server overloads. Up to now the resource limi...
