Sleep processor

A user's job is to stay in an asleep/hung state, which shows RUN on the LSF side. (due to some zombie process) On the LSF side, I would be nice to have, if the process is in a sleep state for 10 minutes and then kill/stop the process/job. Having a...

Effective r15s/r1m/r15m values for job reservations

When using run queue length indices in rusage strings, there should be an option to have the value divided by ncpus. Since in the "total load used for scheduling" the r15s/r1m/r15m are taken from lsload -E and divided by the specific ncpus for tha...

Request is for ELIMS to be imported into LSF Simulator

Currently LSF Simulator only permits LIMS resources, not ELIMS. All LSF clusters use both LIMS and ELIMS therefore there why would Simulator only support LIMS resources and not ELIMS

Enable the copy - paste functions from local PC to VNC graphical sessions opened within the Application Center (PAC) portal

Copy and paste functions from local PC to VNC sessions are crucial to work in a smooth way. These functionalities are not available in the PAC portal product. Copy /paste "echo hello" from notepad opened locally on the PC to VNC terminal in PAC wi...

Ability to force IBM LSF Application Center (PAC) to convert userID to lower case

We have PAC 10.2.0.9 hosted on linux environment. Users access it from Windows systems. As PAC is case sensitive, users cannot login until they use lower case user ID to login. So, there should be a way to force PAC to convert user ID to lower cas...

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...

Adjust login messages in LSF Explorer for better troubleshooting

We are facing a strange behaviour with the messages for a failed login at LSF Explorer Server. There are three scenarios: The user is not able to the system on the server where LSF Explorer is installed - hence the user is not able to login to LSF...

bsub should accept a cpu_efficiency parameter to allow cpu over-commiting in the pool

It's rare for a job to achieve close to 100% cpu efficiency. Often, jobs have a peak cpu requirement during its execution lifetime but use less cpus in average. If bsub could be told that a job is expected to run with a given cpu efficiency, LSF c...

Change job submit time to include milliseconds for precision.

Job submit time to include milliseconds for precision. Instead of HH:MM:SS, make it like 12:29:05.1234. This will enable this column to be used as a unique identifier when generating data in an incremental fashion. We are extracting the RTM data a...

Ability to limit user's views in RTM to select clusters

Reduces support because users can't flip to other clusters via Cluster drop-down menu to then ask questions about resources and usage or see other information that should only be for users of a particular cluster or why can't they find their infor...
