bhist json format output, similar to bjobs -json

Programatically parsing bhist output takes effort and susceptible to occasional changes across versions. json format output similar to bjobs -json would ease the handling of bhist output through scripts.

Please provide a bresources option where we can find the default reservation unit per defined resource: job, task, host

Currently, it's not strait forward for a user to be able to see what the default reservation units are for things like memory, swap, license resources, etc. It would be nice if there were a bresources option to show the default allocation unit's f...

Support Rate Limiting in the LSF Proxy

We have a case where users, if left to their own accords will not eclipse the current supported connections, but in the end will diminish the batch performance if left on their own. So, provide a feature where I can have a configuration file that ...

Add Column PSUSP to Job Group Output and Allow Filtering by Name Similar to Job Name filtering in "bjobs"

For our user community, Jobs that go into PSUSP are important for the flow owners to investigate and our flow owners are using Job Groups. The inability to easily see the number of Jobs that are in PSUSP is limiting the effectiveness in the use of...

Please Log the Pre and Post Exec Runtimes in MBD and through Events

The Pre-exec start event is logged, but there is no event for the post exec. So, it's almost impossible for us to track the runtimes of post exec without adding additional layers to our external reporting. We would prefer these metrics to be track...

Please log the number of bwaits processed per minute in "badmin perfmon view" and the current number of bwait's queued in "badmin show status"

Currently, we can see the number of total bwaits that have gone into the system since we have command debug logging enabled, but we have no easy way to know how many wait's are queued up or what the throughput of bwait commands are. We would use t...

Allow Flagging Jobs for Reservation Through Rules and/or Through a "bsub --plan" Option

Today, reservations in LSF are handled by the Top X jobs by ordered by Dynamic Priority using the variable MAX_JOB_RESERVE. We believe that this is a shotgun approach. We have millions of jobs a day that require 1 cores and less than 1GB of memory...

Limit Loans to certain User Groups and/or Project tag patterns in Guarantee Pools

We want to enable more loaning of resources, but the various teams are rather territorial. They would loan to some one in either the same user group tree, and/or the same Project by regular expression. Allow Guarantee Pools to support that loan po...

Ensure that 'bresize' calls ESUB so that we can do policy enforcement, like limit the increase to no more than X tasks or to keep the job from going over Y tasks

Once we re-certify Session Scheduler, we know that the users will 'game the system'.
