bhpart


displays information about host partitions

SYNOPSIS

bhpart [-r] [host_partition_name ...]

bhpart [-h | -V]

DESCRIPTION

By default, displays information about all host partitions. Host partitions are used to configure host-partition fairshare scheduling.

OPTIONS

-r

Displays the entire information tree associated with the host partition recursively.

host_partition_name ...

Displays information about the specified host partitions only.

-h

Prints command usage to stderr and exits.

-V

Prints LSF release version to stderr and exits.

OUTPUT

The following fields are displayed for each host partition:

HOST_PARTITION_NAME

Name of the host partition.

HOSTS

Hosts or host groups that are members of the host partition. The name of a host group is appended by a slash (/) (see bmgroup(1)).

USER/GROUP

Name of users or user groups who have access to the host partition (see bugroup(1)).

SHARES

Number of shares of resources assigned to each user or user group in this host partition, as configured in the file lsb.hosts. The shares affect dynamic user priority for when fairshare scheduling is configured at the host level.

PRIORITY

Dynamic user priority for the user or user group. Larger values represent higher priorities. Jobs belonging to the user or user group with the highest priority are considered first for dispatch.

In general, users or user groups with larger SHARES, fewer STARTED and RESERVED, and a lower CPU_TIME and RUN_TIME will have higher PRIORITY.

STARTED

Number of job slots used by running or suspended jobs owned by users or user groups in the host partition.

RESERVED

Number of job slots reserved by the jobs owned by users or user groups in the host partition.

CPU_TIME

Cumulative CPU time used by jobs of users or user groups executed in the host partition. Measured in seconds, to one decimal place.

LSF calculates the cumulative CPU time using the actual (not normalized) CPU time and a decay factor such that 1 hour of recently-used CPU time decays to 0.1 hours after an interval of time specified by HIST_HOURS in lsb.params (5 hours by default).

RUN_TIME

Wall-clock run time plus historical run time of jobs of users or user groups that are executed in the host partition. Measured in seconds.

LSF calculates the historical run time using the actual run time of finished jobs and a decay factor such that 1 hour of recently-used run time decays to 0.1 hours after an interval of time specified by HIST_HOURS in lsb.params (5 hours by default). Wall-clock run time is the run time of running jobs.

FILES

Reads lsb.hosts.
