Per-process resource usage limits

The possible UNIX per-process resource limits are:

CORELIMIT

The maximum size of a core file.

By default, the limit is shown in KB. Use LSF_UNIT_FOR_LIMITS in lsf.conf to specify a larger unit for display (MB, GB, TB, PB, or EB).

DATALIMIT

The maximum size of the data segment of a process, in KB. This restricts the amount of memory a process can allocate.

FILELIMIT

The maximum file size a process can create, in KB.

RUNLIMIT

The maximum wall clock time a process can use, in minutes. RUNLIMIT is scaled by the CPU factor of the execution host.

STACKLIMIT

The maximum size of the stack segment of a process. This restricts the amount of memory a process can use for local variables or recursive function calls.

By default, the limit is shown in KB. Use LSF_UNIT_FOR_LIMITS in lsf.conf to specify a larger unit for display (MB, GB, TB, PB, or EB).

CHKPNT_DIR The checkpoint directory, if automatic checkpointing is enabled for the application profile.

CHKPNT_INITPERIOD

The initial checkpoint period in minutes. The periodic checkpoint does not happen until the initial period has elapsed.

CHKPNT_PERIOD The checkpoint period in minutes. The running job is checkpointed automatically every checkpoint period.

CHKPNT_METHOD The checkpoint method.

MIG The migration threshold in minutes. A value of 0 (zero) specifies that a suspended job should be migrated immediately.

Where a host migration threshold is also specified, and is lower than the job value, the host value is used.

PRE_EXEC The pre-execution command for the application profile. The PRE_EXEC command runs on the execution host before the job associated with the application profile is dispatched to the execution host (or to the first host selected for a parallel batch job).

POST_EXEC The post-execution command for the application profile. The POST_EXEC command runs on the execution host after the job finishes.

JOB_INCLUDE_POSTPROC

If JOB_INCLUDE_POSTPROC= Y, post-execution processing of the job is included as part of the job.

JOB_POSTPROC_TIMEOUT
