LSF jobs timeout - wall time limit

We are noticing an issue with some LSF jobs timeouts.

For example user has submitted a job with 2 hr wall time limit but the compute host where the job is running is flagged as unhealthy by the in-house compute health check script and the host is closed in LSF.

From the end user point of view the running job should had timed out when it over ran the wall time limit rather than showing the job as still running and using the cluster resources.

Some users see the job status as still running and assume the cluster is slow or complain of job/host slowness.

Unless the user reports such jobs or we do some monitoring such kind of jobs continue to occupy the cluster resources.

We would like to know if there is any solution/options for such kind of
issues. If there is a way/mechanism in LSF to identify such hosts and terminate those jobs that exceeded the wall time limit or similar timeout/threshold exceeding scenarios.
