7.1.6Notes About Using LSF in the HP XC Environment
This section provides some additional information that should be noted about using LSF in the HP XC Environment.
7.1.6.1 Job Startup and Job Control
When LSF starts a SLURM job, it sets SLURM_JOBID to associate the job with the SLURM allocation. During job running, all LSF supported
7.1.6.2 Preemption Support
LSF uses the SLURM "node share" feature to support preemption. When a
7.2 Determining Execution Host
The lsid command displays the name of the HP XC system, and the name of the LSF execution host, along with some general LSF information.

My cluster name is penguin
My master name is lsfhost.localdomain
In this example, penguin is the HP XC system name (where is user is logged in and which contains the compute nodes), and lsfhost.localdomain is the node where LSF is installed and runs (LSF execution host).
7.3 Determining Available System Resources
For best use of system resources when launching an application, it is useful to know beforehand what system resources are available for your use. This section describes how to obtain information about system resources such as the number of processors available, LSF execution host node information, and LSF system queues.
7.3.1 Getting Status of LSF
The bhosts command displays LSF resource usage information. This command is useful to check the status of the system processors. The bhosts command provides a summary of the jobs on the system and information about the current state of LSF. For example, it can be used to determine if LSF is ready to start accepting batch jobs.
LSF daemons run on only one node in the HP XC system, so the bhosts command will list one host, which represents all the resources of the HP XC system. The total number of processors for that host should be equal to the total number of processors assigned to the SLURM lsf partition.
By default, this command returns the host name, host status, and job state statistics.
Using LSF
