Further LSF Commands

Overview

The commands on this page are useful but not really used in everyday practise.

bqueues

bqueues will provide information about each of the queues including how many jobs are running in each, how many jobs are suspended and how many are running. Specifying a queue name will display information about that queue only whilst the -l option will give more details about the parameters associated with each of the queues.

lsload

lsload displays load information for each of the hosts. The -l option provides more detail whilst using a hostname allows the user to look at information for a specific host.

lshosts

lshosts displays static resource information about the hosts. It lists all the hosts in the system together with the type of machine they are, their cpu factor, number of cpus, memory and swap size and whether or not they're a server. The -l option will provide more information about each of the hosts in turn.
