displays or updates a local task list
Displays or updates a user local task list in $HOME/.lsftask.
When no options are specified, displays tasks listed in the system task file lsf.task and the user task file .lsftask.
If there is a conflict between the system task file lsf.task and the user task file (.lsftask), the user task file overrides the system task file.
Tasks in the local task list are not eligible for remote execution, either because they are trivial tasks or because they need resources on the local host.
If + is specified and the specified task names are not already in the user task file (.lsftask), adds the task names to the file with a plus sign (+) preceding them.
If any of the task names are already in the .lsftask file, the actual action depends on the entry in the file. If the entry starts with a + or nothing, replaces the entry with the specified content; if the entry starts with a minus sign (-), deletes the entry from the .lsftask file.
If – is specified and specified task names are not already in the user .lsftask file, adds the task names to the file with a – preceding the task name.
If any of the task names are already in the .lsftask file, the actual action depends on the entry in the file. If the entry starts with a –, no operation is done; if the entry starts with a +, deletes the entry from the .lsftask file.
Reads the system task file lsf.task, and the user .lsftask file. See lsf.task(5) for more details.
The system and user task files contain two sections, one for the remote task list, the other for the local task list. The local tasks section starts with Begin LocalTasks and ends with End LocalTasks. Each line in the section is an entry consisting of a task name.
A plus sign (+) or a minus sign (–) can optionally precede each entry. If no + or – is specified, then + is assumed.
